Microeconomics (advanced) (2021/2022)
The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
The course covers topics of consumer theory, production theory, and behavioral economics with a focus on social preferences and behavioral industrial organization. It is divided into two modules. The first module will analyze traditional economic models of individual decision-making, consumer behavior, and firm behavior. The second module will introduce concepts of behavioral economics and pay attention to alternative theories of individual choice behavior and industrial organization. Theoretical lectures will be complemented by practical exercise classes aiming at applying the concepts and methods developed during the course. At the end of the course, students should be able to i) understand the determinants of optimal consumers' and firms' choices, ii) use analytical and graphical tools to solve optimization problems, iii) apply orthodox and behavioral economic models for the analysis of markets structure and behavior, and iv) critically assess the implications of the different models for the analysis of individuals’ and firms’ choices.
Program
MODULE 1
Traditional Approach to Consumer Theory:
- preference relations
- choice
- utility functions

- expenditure minimization problem
- duality
Production Theory:
- technology
- profit maximization problem
- cost minimization problem
Markets Structures and Organization:
- perfect competition
- advanced monopoly theory

MODULE 2
Behavioral and experimental economics:
- preferences and behavior
- models of social preferences
- time preferences and inconsistency
- risk preferences and uncertainty
Bibliography
Examination Methods
Students' preparation will be assessed through a written (if in presence) or oral (if online) exam that will include open questions on the theory and a number of exercises. The two exams are equivalent in terms of content and require the same skills and knowledge. The exam, whatever its form, will test the students' accurate and thorough understanding of the concepts, methods, and models explained during the course as well as their ability to use theoretical tools in order to solve empirical questions.
Moreover, students are given the opportunity to present an article to the class. The lecturers will distribute the articles among which a student can select the one (s)he wants to present.

Internships
The curriculum of the three-year degree courses (CdL) and master's degree courses (CdLM) in the economics area includes an internship as a compulsory training activity. Indeed, the internship is considered an appropriate tool for acquiring professional skills and abilities and for facilitating the choice of a future professional outlet that aligns with one's expectations, aptitudes, and aspirations. The student can acquire further competencies and interpersonal skills through practical experience in a work environment.

Methods of teaching delivery
All lectures as well as all the exams are held in person. In particular, we highlight the importance of taking part in classroom activities in order to benefit from interaction with colleagues and instructors and participating in project works, presentations and group works that could be organized by the different courses.
Furthermore, as a further service to students, the lessons will be video-recorded and made available on the relevant e-learning platform of the courses unless otherwise communicated by the individual lecturers who will also define the methods and times for activating this service. However, it is underlined that the recordings do not represent a substitute for the lectures and activities carried out in the classroom.
