Title

Competitive Analysis

Course Description

The course provides insights needed to understand the behavior of firms in imperfectly competitive industries; introduces elements of game theory as a framework for the study of strategic interactions; and analyzes various aspects of the organization of industries. Course includes three basic themes: (1) firms typically operate under imperfect or incomplete information and make decisions under uncertainty; their actions may reveal some of their private information; (2) firms' decisions usually are of a dynamic nature and involve intertemporal trade-offs; (3) industries are not static, but evolve over time driven by market forces, as well as by the strategic decisions of the firms. This course is for Daytime MBA and Accelerated Daytime MBA students.
