This course teaches how to approach and solve a wide range of organizational problems, whether as (aspiring) manager at any level, entrepreneur, or consultant. In a world in which most sources of competitive advantage are fleeting, organizational effectiveness has emerged as a key source of long-run competitive advantage. Conversely, many corporate failures can be traced to poor internal organization. Topics covered range from individual job design to the structure of entire organizations and the boundaries of the firm (e.g., M&A decisions or vertical integration). The course discusses in detail the assignment of decision rights (including centralization vs. decentralization of decisions), performance measurement, and incentives and rewards. These are the three elements of “organizational architecture,” a central framework of the course. Throughout, the course stresses the importance of fit between a firm’s internal organization and its strategy. The course is grounded in the field of organizational economics, but also draws on insights from psychology and sociology. Classes consist of lectures and discussion of business cases and news articles, through which you will practice applying theoretical concepts to real-life business problems.

The Advanced Macroeconomics course explores key macroeconomic theories. Students analyze critical topics such as economic growth, including the factors that drive long-term productivity improvements like technology, capital accumulation. Students also study business cycles, highlighting the impact of monetary policy, central banking, and interest rates on the economy. It also covers fiscal policy concerning government spending and taxation, as well as open economy topics like international trade and globalization. By the end of the course, students will be equipped to analyze macroeconomic data and apply theories to real-world situations.

The course is an introduction to the mathematical modeling of problems of fairness in resource allocation. Among the types of problems we will seek to analyze are: - How should the Red Cross distribute supplies among refugees in a refugee camp.- How should housemates split the rent when the rooms in the house they share have different features that each housemate values differently.- How should students in a dance class be organized in male-female pairs when each male student has preferences over female partners and each female student has preferences over male partners?- When a firm goes bankrupt, how should it liquidation value be divided among its creditors?

The course examines the role of the government in the economy, answering "why", "when", and "how" it should intervene. We begin with the "why", exploring normative approaches to resource allocation through welfare economics, distributive justice, and bargaining theory, establishing efficiency and equity as key government objectives. To address the "when", we analyze the benchmark case of competitive markets and the welfare theorems, followed by an exploration of various market failures (externalities, public goods, market power, asymmetric information). We then study the government's tools for intervention, both in markets (taxes and quotas) and beyond markets (regulations and institutions). Since these tools reshape incentives, the "how" focuses on understanding the responses of economic agents to government actions. Drawing insights from public finance, labor economics, and political economy, we distinguish between mechanical and behavioral changes and explore government failures. Finally, we integrate these elements to build a positivist framework for assessing the quality of public policies based on government normative objectives.

Game theory is a systematic study of strategic situations. It is a theory that helps us analyze economic and political strategic issues, such as behavior of individuals in a group, competition among firms in a market, platform choices of political candidates, and so on. We will develop the basic concepts and results of game theory, including simultaneous and sequential move games, repeated games and games with incomplete information. The objective of the course is to enable the student to analyze strategic situations on his or her own. The emphasis of the course is on theoretical aspects of strategic behavior, so familiarity with mathematical formalism is required.
