ECB 334 - Traveling Economists in China Seminar (1)

This course focuses on the economic, social, and cultural changes taking place in China today. We will talk with local experts in Chinese development and business, visit local Chinese firms and factories, have class exchanges with Chinese college students, travel to the two major economic powerhouse cities of China-Shanghai and Beijing-but also visit western, rural, and poorer parts of China that still define the lives of most Chinese today. This course will also refine our abilities to think like economists by focusing on the ways that incentives shape behavior and determine of difference across people, cultures, societies, and countries over time. Prerequisite: ECB 101 This course is pre-approved for transcript notation in the Ingenuity in Action category, Global Connections.
