Course Content (Syllabus)
Study of the economic behaviour of individual units of an economy (such as a person, household, firm, farm or industry). Microeconomics is primarily concerned with the factors that affect individual economic choices, the effect of changes in these factors on the individual decision makers, how their choices are coordinated by markets, and how prices and demand are determined in individual markets.
