This course introduces the tools of game theory to analyze and design strategic behavior in business and managerial settings. Students learn how to model real-world interactions among firms, consumers, and regulators as strategic games and how to derive and interpret their equilibrium outcomes. The course covers both non-strategic decision-making—such as monopoly pricing and price discrimination—and strategic settings as collusion and entry deterrence. Topics include simultaneous and sequential games, repeated interactions, strategic moves, and the fundamentals of mechanism design.
