MBUS 881, Managerial Economics and Industry Analysis, is a foundational course in the EMBA curriculum.  The purpose of the course is to increase student's understanding of economic theories and economic analysis in order to enhance a student's ability to apply analytical tools of managerial economics.

Course Goals:

As individuals and managers, we operate within various markets, and are subject to their rules. These markets are themselves part of the economy as a whole – Canadian and global. This economy goes through booms and busts over time – the business cycle – and these fluctuations have an important impact on prices, national output, and unemployment, and indeed affect our daily lives. Beyond understanding markets and the economy, today's managers face a myriad of economic issues when formulating strategies. Should we enter this market? Should we exit that one? What price should we charge? How much should we produce? The right answers to these questions depend on the market environment in which we are operating in. MBUS881 is a course that aims to provide guidance to understand how do world events shape our markets and our economy, and how governments reacts to these events through their policies as well as how managers ought to react to changes in their competitive environment.
