課程要求
This is a graduate core course of Microeconomic Theory, so you are assumed to know everything about intermediate microeconomics. In addition, this course employs mathematical reasoning, so you should know at least Calculus A(I, II), if not Advanced Calculus (I) (aka undergraduate real analysis).

Part I requirement: This half is taught solely in English, and you have to finish all assignments in English. Professor Wang pre-commits NOT to understand Chinese either in class or when grading.
