This is an introductory microeconomics program that provides a learning experience that gives students the ability to think like an economist.
It focuses on how decision-making units within the economy (eg, consumers, businesses, government departments) make decisions, and how decisions can be made in a way that makes the best possible use of the limited resources available.
Since life is largely about making choices, this program will help you understand why the world is the way it is and how to make use of the limited resources available.
The three courses in the program are based on a postgraduate introductory microeconomics course taught on the campus of the University of Queensland.
The Professional Certificate program will put you on the path to thinking critically about all areas of life where decisions are made.
This course is for everyone, whether you are studying at university, a career professional interested in expanding your economic knowledge, or simply curious about human and economic behavior and what influences it.
Emphasis is placed on core economic principles that are of immediate application rather than formal mathematical theorizing.
