Microeconomics edX - online learning platform

Overview

The Microeconomics programme in collaboration with University of Queensland - UQx is a Professional Certificate. 

Key Facts

This is an introductory program in Microeconomics that provides a learning experience equipping students with the ability to think like an economist. It focuses on how decision-making units within the economy (e.g. consumers, firms, government departments) make choices and how choices can be made in a way that makes best possible use of limited available resources. Since life is in large part about making choices, this program will help you to understand why the world is the way it is, and how to make use of limited available resources.

The three courses within the program are based on a post-graduate introductory microeconomics course taught on campus at The University of Queensland. The Professional Certificate program will set you on the path to thinking critically about all areas of life where choices are made.

Job Outlook

• Understanding microeconomics is relevant for a large range of industries and occupations as multidisciplinary roles become more common.
• Careers focused on economics include analysts, advisors, and economists in the public and private sectors, especially those in business, finance, international development, health, marketing, journalism, management and research.
