पाठ्यक्रमबारे सारश

Students in the computational economics concentration supplement their knowledge of traditional tools of economic analysis by studying modern computational techniques. The computational concentration allows students to investigate issues that are particularly challenging when tackled with analytical methods. Student projects may address problems of complex macroeconomic modeling, chaos, computational finance, design of automated Internet markets, and artificial life. This concentration draws on the expertise and talent of the faculty in various departments throughout the university.
