Content: This course develops a conceptual framework for understanding games played in business and in life. The ultimate goal of this course is to enhance the students' ability to think strategically in interactive situations. Students learn first how to represent strategic situations as games and acquire basic solution concepts to predict their outcomes. The second half of the course focuses on advanced topics, such as the use of credible threats and promises, repeated games, negotiation and bargaining, strategic use of information through signaling, and bidding in auctions.
