In this course, the consideration of the interrelationships in economics is divided into the segments of economic policy, microeconomics and macroeconomics.
The learning elements for the introduction to economics correspond to the requirements of the FernUniversität Hagen. Therefore, this online course is ideal for any student who wants to additionally prepare for the exam in the compulsory subject "Introduction to Economics". Of course, the course is also recommended for others who are interested in economics. A logical structure, clear explanations of the analytical tools and lots of exercises will make your introduction to economics easy. You will see how easy it makes solving the exam questions.
In the first phase (A Microeconomics) of the course, you will learn how economists think and what methods they use for analysis. You will also be introduced to economic problems. You will learn how the decision-making behaviour of private and commercial market actors affects the supply and demand of the respective markets.
In the second part (B Macroeconomics), the national product is analysed, among other things. The question of the extent to which the economic process can be influenced macroeconomically by economic policy measures is also clarified.
The last phase (C economic policy) deals with national economic policy without going into the perspectives of microeconomics and macroeconomics. A distinction is made here between process policy and regulatory policy.
