SEMESTER OUTLINE
PREFACE
1.
General. This tentative Semester Outline is the overall pen picture of the academic curriculum blended with series of learning events from social activities
and numerous enjoyable events for an effective learning to be fit in the competitive world. Its core theme is to provide a panoramic view of the course curriculum for
the initial mental set up of the students and to give guidelines for teachers for innovative and research oriented learning. This comprehensive Semester Outline
includes a column each for the Day/Date, Class Timing, Name of the Section Location (Classroom Number), Course Code, Topic/Event, Teacher/Faculty Member
and Remarks/Discussion Points. The Semester Outline is also a basic guideline indicating the modes of conduct of the course curriculum. It accommodates all
relevant information required for the whole semester including all central events (e.g. sports, games or cultural competitions, National Day(s) celebrations, seminars,
cultural programs, etc.). In a nutshell, this Semester Outline is the ready reckoner to all your questions regarding the program.
2.
Semester Starting and Finishing Dates. The semester starts on 03 January 2016 and finishes on 13 June 2016.
3.
Timing and Conduct of Classes. The academic week starts on Sunday and finishes on Thursday, making it a five-day working week. Each Section shall
have about two classes per day. So, there will be total ten classes per week for each Section. Each class shall be of 90 minutes duration, of which 60 minutes shall
be dedicated for lecture, and the rest 30 minutes shall be spent for discussions by the students. The mode and conduct of discussions shall be designed by the
class-teacher as per the ‘Remarks/Discussion’ column given in the following pages. Apart from the planned classes, makeup classes and industrial visits will be

Conclusion. This Semester Outline, with its all information and instructions, welcomes the students to be a proud member of BUP. It sets the tone and
describes the general academic environment of the University for the 3rd Semester of the year 2016. In fact, it is a complete guideline for the students for the
Semester, so that there is no room for any confusion on anyone’s part. It also gives a clear picture of what BUP wants to impart to the students as well as what is
expected out of the students. Disciplinary aspects are also mentioned enabling the students to have a prior understanding of the culture and discipline of BUP. It is
expected that students shall take all instructions and information by heart and follow the same with utmost sincerity. It is worth mentioning that curriculum of BUP is
not only a bundle of strict routines and their observances, but also a place where students shall learn to be a good and knowledgeable citizen with excellent
presentation skill. The Semester is full of fun and frolics apart from the pure academic curriculum, which the students shall come across as the Semester unfolds
with passage of time. We hope, gradually, all students shall successfully complete the Semester with praiseworthy results. Welcome to BUP once again.

Course Outline
Course Title:- Intermediate Microeconomics( ECO2301)
Course Description
This course provides an analysis of the way in which the market system functions as a mechanism for coordinating the independent choices of
individual economic agents. It develops a basis for evaluating the efficiency and equity implications of competition and other market
structures, and a perspective on the appropriate role of government. Included are the study of consumer choice, production and cost, market
structure, and market failure. Given the emphasis on applications in Principles of Microeconomics, Intermediate Microeconomics –I will put
more emphasis on the mastery of theoretical concepts and analytical tools, although their application to real world problems remains an
important part of the course
Course Objectives
At the end of the course you should be able to:
47
understand intermediate microeconomic facts, concepts, theories and methods;
establish a relationship between these theories and concepts;
apply theory to actual situations;
analyze a given issue, theme or phenomenon from several perspectives;
develop appropriate strategies to study specific cases;
demonstrate awareness of the contribution of informed , concerned, active citizenship, both locally and globally;
draw and interpret graphs relevant to this course;
correctly interpret the news, newspaper articles and the various quantitative data relevant to microeconomics;
use equations to solve for equilibrium levels of price and quantity;
employ critical thinking at a college level;
develop evidence-based arguments;
identify microeconomic-based problems and formulate appropriate questions;
analyze text/data;
synthesize text/data, demonstrating awareness of various perspectives; o) evaluate text/data;
48
use computers to find information relevant to the course;
establish links between economics and other social science and commerce disciplines.
Required Text and Materials:
1. Hal. R. Varian, Intermediate Microeconomics, 6th edition
2. Paul A. Samuelson, Economics, 18th edition
