Economics 70 Intermediate Macroeconomic Analysis (3 units)

This course is being offered at time of significant macroeconomic uncertainty. The Philippine economy is now in the fourth year of an economic recovery that has been unusually slow and lacking in job creation until recently. Macroeconomic performance was much better (in terms of faster growth, more job creation, and lower unemployment) in the late 1990s than it has been since 2000. The economy again faces old problems such as a large budget deficit and rising oil prices, as well as new problems such as the “outsourcing” of jobs. The growing trade deficit and increasing reliance on foreign lending have created concerns over the value of the dollar and the future of the country’s economy.

Meanwhile, other countries around the world face similar challenges about how to promote rapid and sustainable economic growth and provide jobs for their people while controlling inflation and other maladies.

Economics 106 Labor Economics (3 units)

This course provides a discussion of the economics of the labor market. The course begins with an overview of the trends and institutional features that characterize the labor market. Particular attention is placed on the causes and consequences of rising female labor force participation rates, the growth of the service sector, and other labor market issues.

After this introductory discussion, the focus of the course turns to a discussion of the theory of labor demand. In this section of the course, students examine the short-run and long-run determinants of labor demand. The determinants of the elasticity of labor demand, and the importance of demand. Students examine the tradeoff that occurs between the number of workers hired and the length of the work week.

The next section of the course provides a discussion of the determinants of labor supply. This discussion begins with an examination of labor supply in a simple model in which workers face a choice between labor and leisure. This is followed by a discussion of the household production model in which individuals must choose to allocate time among market and various types of non-market activities. The effects of alternative types of welfare, unemployment compensation, and social security systems on labor supply are then examined.

The concluding section of the course provides an examination of alternative sources of wage differentials. This portion of the course provides an examination of the economics of education, unions, discrimination, compensating wage differentials, and other determinants of wage differences.

Economics 107.1 Benefit-Cost Analysis (3 units)

Wherever possible, examples are used to aid the exposition. Particular attention will be given to practical analysis with emphasis on the use of shadow prices, the use of consumers’ surplus and the problems of valuing goods that do not have market prices.

Economics 108 Economic Geography (3 units)

Economic geography is the geography of people making a living. It deals with the spatial patterns of production, distribution and consumption of goods and services at local, regional, national and international levels. In other words, it deals with the economies of places and the connections between those places. The economy of a place may be studied in many ways. One approach worth mentioning now is that the subdiscipline of economic geography has become more global in its view in recent years. As the world economy becomes more interdependent, a global perspective helps us better understand the economies of such places as Cagayan de Oro, Misamis Oriental or the Philippines.

Economics 109 Corporate Finance (3 units)

The course in corporate finance describes the corporation and its operating environment, the manner in which corporate boards and management evaluate investment opportunities and arrangements for financing such investments, create (or, alternatively, destroy) value for shareholders by planning and managing the transformation of a set of inputs (human labor, raw materials, and technology) into a more highly valued set of outputs (embodying both the original investment value and any surplus value generated), and develop strategies for meeting the claims of financial market participants who are sought as financiers (and, therefore, residual claimants to the cash flows/surplus value of) such investments. It is understood that the shares of surplus value received by various claimants and retained by corporate boards of directors for investment and other uses is the subject of complex social interactions. Thus, the course provides students with a basic analytical framework for understanding how the various struggles over corporate surplus value (in the form of cash flows) may be understood and resolved. In this context, the course is designed to provide students with analytical tools that allow them to determine the "intrinsic value" of a corporation (or any economic institution, including a state-owned enterprise that is to be privatized) and to assess the effectiveness of corporate management in maximizing that value.

Economics 121.1 Market Opportunity Analysis (3 units)

“The key to success in business is planning. And the key to successful planning is using a proven format to analyze product’s marketability.”

This course presents a step-by-step through the complicated process of determining the feasibility of marketing a new product or service. As financial markets struggle with changing interest rates, government policies shift back and forth on tax increases, decreases, and deficit spending, and international competition in major product categories is at an all-time high, business decision-makers are forced to reevaluate the basis for success. Through market research, strategic management, consumer behavior, and new venture creation bring focus on what needs to be done and how to do it.

Economics 218 Health Economics (3 units)

In this course, you will learn how to apply microeconomic tools to the study of health and medical care issues. We will examine the special features of medical care as a commodity, the demand for health and medical care services, the economic explanations for the behavior of medical care providers (i.e., physicians and hospitals), the functioning of insurance markets, and technology diffusion. Our discussions will touch on current policy topics such as the prospective payment system, relative value scales, insurance reform, rationing, and price regulation. We will also be examining the role of and economic justification for government involvement in the medical care system. Finally, we will use the tools we have learned to review and analyze various proposals for health care reform.

Economics 219 Agricultural Economics (3 units)

This course is focused on analysis of actual, efficient, and sustainable use of agricultural resources. We will cover agricultural resource use in greater depth and breadth than an introductory resource course. In light of current student interest, instructor research, and the government's policy concerns, one or more specific topics will be chosen that pertain to each of these agricultural resources: land, water, trees, fish, and energy resources. Possible topics are land-use change and regulation, water-use and marketing, harvesting trees or fish on farms, developing property rights to open-access resources, renewable vs. nonrenewable energy use, and sustainable development.

Economics 220 Urban and Regional Economics (3 units)

The field of urban and regional economics is a diverse one that encompasses a wide variety of questions and topics. Some involve the spatial dimension of markets and some others examine public policy towards cities and regions. Many of the topics are studied by other fields of economics and other disciplines such as sociology, political science, and, especially, geography. What distinguishes urban and regional economics from these other perspectives is the emphasis given to reasoning based upon modern neoclassical economics, especially microeconomics.

Urban and regional economists tend to divide the field into three main areas. The first examines questions and issues related to the development of cities or urban areas; for example, it asks why cities exist, where they tend to develop, and why some experience more economic growth than others. The second part focuses on patterns of development within particular metropolitan areas. A central question is why central cities tend to grow less rapidly and even decline relative to suburban portions of an urban area. The final part is a collection of topics related to problems and special characteristics of cities. These include transportation, crime, education, and housing, which receive particular attention in this class.

Economics 222 International Monetary Economics (3 units)

This course will provide an introduction to International Money and Finance. The economic tools that will acquire in this course are applied by managers in the business sector, policy makers in the government sector, and economic researchers in the academic arena. Students successfully completing
this course should leave with an understanding of these basic international economic principles and their applicability to real world situations. You should also be able to incorporate these tools of economic analysis into your own decision-making processes as you weigh costs and benefits to make choices.

Economics 223 Financial Economics (3 units)

This course is concerned with the methodologies used in the selection and appraisal of the factors that influence investment decisions. It involves feasibility analyses, including external considerations (market size, competition, technology, inflation and the economy, government regulations, political conditions, social change), internal factors (purpose, corporate objectives, resources), and financial considerations (revenue estimates, cost estimates, return on investment).

In this course, finance is examined within a general framework concentrating on the experience of advanced capitalist economies, including an introduction to the current concern with derivatives. As a contrast, applications to less developed economies are also, briefly, considered. The course is organized around four principal themes: the relationship between financial markets, financial institutions, and the economy’s real investment and savings; the trade-off between risk and expected returns and their links to information and monitoring; the efficiency of financial markets; and the dialectic between regulation and deregulation or liberalization of financial markets.

Economics 224 Money and Banking (3 units)

This course is intended to introduce to the students the historical perspective of money, its usage, characteristics and its value theories. It also includes the discussion of the Financial System of the Philippines and it's financial institutions especially on the different kinds of bank. Gathering latest updates regarding banking practices and updates on financial issues will also be included in the discussion.

Economics 235 Business Economics (3 units)

Economics is about the ordinary business of life and it is also the basis for many courses in Business. It focuses on the foundations of the economic analysis of business problems, with special emphasis on the function and determination of market prices in production and consumption. Supply and demand, price theory, production theory, trade theory with reference to the global economy, the effects of tax and other policies in the economy, and essential elements of the banking system and monetary policy are addressed.

It also contains much of the conceptual material necessary for an intelligent understanding of business life. The approach in this course to the teaching of economic principles is to try to ensure that students acquire the necessary conceptual apparatus in a way that is both challenging and interesting. This is done by attempting to ensure that the material is presented in a lively, interesting and relevant fashion. We will constantly use current real world examples to illustrate the application of concepts.

Research Methods in Social Science (Economics 114)

In this course students are introduced to the basic concepts and techniques that are used in social science research. The course is divided into three sections, which cover social scientific inquiry and research design, quantitative data gathering and analysis, and qualitative data gathering and analysis, respectively. 

Development Economics (Economics 313)

This course will introduce you to the field of development economics. Development economics is a vast field, and the content of an undergraduate course is apt to vary from one instructor to another. We will begin by exploring the concept of development, and go through various components of development that economists typically study, including economic growth, income inequality, poverty, sustainable development and the growth environment nexus, education, health and nutrition. In the second part of the course, we will look at the characteristics of land, labor and credit markets in rural areas of developing countries. The majority of the world’s poor (and the poorest of the poor) live in rural areas of developing countries, and no course in development would be complete without studying the market institutions prevalent in these areas.

Agricultural Economics (Economics 324)

This course is focused on analysis of actual, efficient, and sustainable use of agricultural resources. We will cover agricultural resource use in greater depth and breadth than an introductory resource course. In light of current student interest, instructor research, and the government's policy concerns, one or more specific topics will be chosen that pertain to each of these agricultural resources: land, water, trees, fish, and energy resources. Possible topics are land-use change and regulation, water-use and marketing, harvesting trees or fish on farms, developing property rights to open-access resources, renewable vs. nonrenewable energy use, and sustainable development.

Contemporary Economic Issues (Economics 322)

Over the course, we will explore, through readings, lectures, and discussion, this thing that we call the “economy.” We will cover topics in both macroeconomics (the study of the economy as a whole) and microeconomics (the study of consumers, firms, and markets). Our goal is to develop an understanding of basic economic concepts and how they apply to the real world.

Environmental Economics (Economics 323)

This course applies theoretical and empirical economic tools to a number of environmental issues. The broad concepts discussed include externalities, public goods, property rights, market failure, and social cost-benefit analysis. These concepts are applied to a number of areas including nonrenewable resources, air pollution, water pollution, solid waste management, and hazardous substances. Special emphasis is devoted to analyzing the optimal role for public policy.

International Political Economics (Economics 328)

International Poilitcal Economy is a course examining the processes of globalization from within the study of Political Economy. Students will situate current global processes within the historical development of the world economy and learn to view these changes through a variety of theoretical lenses. The course materials will critically engage the structural changes occurring between world regions and among international financial institutions, such as the World Trade Organization, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Bank. Finally, students will be engaged with questions concerning the “developing world” and globalization and the “anti-globalization backlash” that appears to be growing in size and momentum.

Managerial Economics (Economics 330)

Sound economic analysis has never been more important - regardless whether the decision-making unit is an individual, household, firm, non-profit organization, or government. We use a modern treatment of economic theory to help students both understand and improve the managerial decision-making process whereby we concentrate on microeconomic topics of particular importance. The integrative approach used in this course demonstrates that important managerial decisions are interdisciplinary as effective management is seen to involve an integration of the accounting, finance, marketing, personnel and production functions as well as the influence of political, social, legal (regulatory), environmental and technological issues. Therefore, the business firm is treated as a unified whole, rather than a series of discrete, unrelated parts.

Urban and Regional Economics (Economics 332)

The field of urban and regional economics is a diverse one that encompasses a wide variety of questions and topics. Some involve the spatial dimension of markets and some others examine public policy towards cities and regions. Many of the topics are studied by other fields of economics and other disciplines such as sociology, political science, and, especially, geography. What distinguishes urban and regional economics from these other perspectives is the emphasis given to reasoning based upon modern neoclassical economics, especially microeconomics.
