This course provides students with the necessary mathematical skills required to build rigorous models in economics, including differential and integral calculus, optimization and comparative statics analysis and advanced topics in linear algebra. It continues in the second half with application to modelling in a particular area of economics. The specific area will vary from year to year, and can include such topics as general equilibrium modelling, mathematical finance models, or economics of the environment.
