This course is the second in a series for doctoral students in political science, focusing on advanced applications and topics in game theory. Building on the foundational concepts covered in Game Theory I, this course delves into specific areas of political science, such as legislature, lobbying, elections, conflict, bargaining, and development.

This undergraduate course introduces the fundamentals of game theory with guide the students through prominent applications of it. Because much of politics is about the allocation of scarce goods, such as power and wealth, and the competition for these goods, much of politics would seem to be a natural fit for the language of game theory.

This undergraduate course provides an in-depth examination of the behavioral influence on important political economy questions and teaches students how to use scientific research methods to explore political economy questions from the behavioral perspective.

This undergraduate course provides an in-depth examination of experimental studies, teaches students how to design an experiment, and demonstrates the advantages of experiments in social science research. We also introduce the typical methods used in the laboratory and field experiment.

This undergraduate course is an introduction to political science research methods. Students will learn fundamental strategies for the systematic observation of the political world and how these observations can be used to test hypotheses regarding political phenomena.
