Justification for changing the course (e.g. alignment with other institutions, program revision, etc.): Based on experience teaching this course the faculty have determined that students with EC 201, Introduction to Microeconomics, are adequately prepared to apply microeconomic theory to macroeconomics without requiring EC 311, Intermediate Microeconomics. |
