ECON3366 · Economics
Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
This course studies markets where customers and sellers cannot instantaneously meet such as labor markets, taxi markets and shipping markets. The course will make extensive use of micro data from such markets in order to study them, as well as economic theory. We also examine what happens when platforms emerge to assist in the matching process, such as Uber/Lyft and Airbnb. The course will use a mixture of slides and a couple of case studies.
