Core Economics & Theory

Core Economics & Theory is your essential foundation for understanding markets, money, and decision-making at every level—from individual choices to global economies. This course builds the economic mindset you need to analyze trends, anticipate policy impact, and make smarter financial decisions. You’ll start with Microeconomics, where you’ll learn how consumers and firms behave, how prices are set, how markets operate under different levels of competition, and how supply and demand shape everything from grocery prices to corporate profits. Then we move to Macroeconomics, covering national income, GDP, inflation, interest rates, and unemployment. You’ll explore the role of central banks and governments, understand how policy decisions affect growth and recessions, and gain the tools to evaluate real economic news like a professional. We go global with International Trade & Currency Markets, breaking down how exchange rates work, why trade deficits matter, and how capital flows influence investment. Learn how currencies impact business, inflation, and your global portfolio. You’ll also dive into Development & Behavioral Economics, exploring why countries succeed or fail, and how human psychology and cognitive biases affect real-world financial behavior—beyond textbook logic. Finally, you’ll gain powerful insight from Game Theory, learning how to think strategically in competitive environments—whether in business, markets, or policy. This course blends academic rigor with practical insight, giving you the mindset and tools of an economist. Perfect for investors, analysts, entrepreneurs, and anyone serious about understanding how the world really works.
