Micro Theory Guides (Ph.D.)

During my time as a first-year student, I created many “guides” to help me with the content. After passing my core exams, I became the TA for the Ph.D. microeconomics courses for the following cohort. During that time, I consolidated all of my microeconomics guides into two PDFs. These guides are based on lecture notes and problems from Dr. R. Vijay Krishna and Dr. Luke Boosey. Although I am not a theorist, I hope these materials prove helpful to other Ph.D. students in economics. Any and all mistakes are my own.

You can find the guides below:

I am passionate about financial literacy and education, and I shared some of what I have learned with my students to give them a baseline understanding. You can download this presentation here.
