Course Information
• Course Number and Title: ECON 37000 – International Trade
• Section: 003
• CRN: 21116
Course Description
This course explores the economics of globalization, focusing on the movement of goods, people, capital, and ideas across countries. You’ll develop an understanding of the benefits and costs of globalization and its impact on wages, earnings, and national welfare, all through the lens of intermediate economic theory. We’ll emphasize developing analytical tools and applying them to real-world questions, providing a broad overview of the microeconomic aspects of the international economy and how government policies intersect with these global dynamics.
Prerequisites
Econ 251, Econ 252 (Principles of Microeconomics and Macroeconomics)
Course Materials
• Textbook: Feenstra and Taylor, “International Trade” 5th Edition. This course will closely follow this source.
• Textbook: Yeaple, Study Guide for Feenstra and Taylor’s International Trade, 2nd Edition. We take practice problems from the Study Guide.
• Complementary materials will be posted on Brightspace.
Requirements
The final grade will be based on problem sets (25%), quizzes (25%), a midterm exam (25%), and a final exam (25%).
problem sets (25%)
Problem sets will be posted on Brightspace one week before they are due. Homework will be submitted online. There are many clever document scanners available these days. I suggest writing your homework by hand, scanning, then uploading to Brightspace before the due date. A single PDF file is required (so we can provide feedback direcly).
There will be four problem sets assigned throughout the course. Out of the five problem sets, the best four results will be counted for the grade. Late problem sets will not be accepted without an officially excused absence from the university or an excuse discussed with and approved by me ahead of time. Note the officially excused absence requires an absence verification process conducted by the university. See the university policy on class absences. Students are encouraged to discuss on problem sets, but the submitted work must be their own.
quizzes (25%)
Each quiz will be at the end of the class, and only students who have assisted the entire class will be able to take them. I want to encourage class participation as much as possible. Note I drop the worst quiz in the overall grade (best 3 out of 4).
exams (midterm 25%, final 25%)
The midterm exam will take place during class time. See the tentative course schedule. The final exam time and location will be posted shortly. Both exams are closed book and closed notes. Students are not allowed to make up exams under any circumstances without an officially excused absence from the university or an excuse discussed with and approved by me ahead of time. At my discretion, students who miss one of the exams may make these points up by adding extra weight to the other one. To have the best chance of receiving this permission, contact me at least 48 hours in advance of the exam.
Grades
Students who get at least 97% of the total points in this course are guaranteed an A+, 93% guarantees an A, 90% an A-, 87% a B+, 83% a B, 80% a B-, 77% a C+, 73% a C, 70% a C-, 67% a D+, 63% a D, and 60% a D-; for each of these grades, it’s possible that at the end of the semester a somewhat lower percentage will be enough to get that grade. I reserve the right to lower the thresholds.
Regrading
Students may request to have their problem sets and midterms regraded if they believe there is a grading error. For the regrading, the work must be resubmitted to a TA within 7 days of being returned to them and a concise description of the grading issue must be attached. Resubmitted work will be regraded in their entirety and students must take the updated total score even if it is lower than the original score.
