JINS 333 - Conflict, Cooperation, and Choice

This course is an interdisciplinary study of rational choice as the basis for predictive models of human behavior. We use economics and game theory as our primary vehicles for understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the rational choice assumptions, but we also survey the way other disciplines (e.g., political science, anthropology, sociobiology, etc.) use this assumption in their models.

Prerequisites: completion of statistics requirement and mathematical mode requirement of the LSP and junior status.
Credits: 3
NOTE: This course fulfills the Junior Interdisciplinary Writing-Enhanced Seminar Interconnecting Perspective of the Liberal Studies Program.
NOTE: This course counts toward the 63-credit Liberal Arts and Sciences (LAS) graduation requirement.
NOTE: This is a writing-enhanced course.
