William Morris Appleman, Ph.D. Candidate at the Center for Economic Research and Graduate Education - Economics Institute (CERGE-EI) conducted a one-week-long intensive course entitled "Fundamental Principles of Economics" for the second cohort of our brand new BA program (first cohort students were also invited and many attended).

The main goal of the course was to introduce students to the most important fundamental concepts of economics and give them a foundation upon which to build their upcoming economic education. More specifically, students were intensively engaged in illustrative games, activities, and classroom discussions and debates that were often linked with real life examples. They gained a core understanding of what economics is, how economies work, and a toolkit in intuitive economic reasoning.
