Teaching hours will be commensurate with a usual full unit undergraduate course but note that teaching may take a different format and/or structure in 2021/22. Students on this course will have a reading week in Week 6, in line with departmental policy.
Students are expected to prepare answers to set problems on a weekly basis. Some of this work will be assessed. Assiduous preparation for the weekly tutorials is essential to achieve a good exam performance.
No textbook covers the whole course but Hal R Varian, Intermediate Microeconomics with Calculus (International Student Edition) is the best text book to use for the course. In addition students are advised to refer to T C Bergstrom & H R Varian, Workouts in Intermediate Microeconomics (1990), which contains practice problems.
Exam (100%, duration: 3 hours) in the summer exam period.
