This course introduces students to the fundamental principles of economic thought. It is structured around two core areas: microeconomics, which focuses on individual decision-making and firm behavior within specific markets; and macroeconomics, which examines broader economic indicators such as gross domestic product (GDP), unemployment, inflation, and international trade. The goal is to build a strong foundation for further study in economics. By the end of the semester, students are expected to be able to understand and apply core economic theories to practical problems.
