Course Description

This course explores the ways in which firm strategy affects, and is affected by, how markets work. Understanding this interplay is crucial for those interested in management, public policy, consulting, antitrust law, as well as those generally curious about why certain products are (or are not) available and why it is that firms behave the way they do. This course will explore this interplay using a mixture of theoretical models and empirical tools with a heavy emphasis on the real-world applicability of what we learn.
