Literature

The course follows the material that is present in the textbook The Economy 2.0. Please visit and consider registering at the webpage of CORE, which contains the excellent free online textbook. Please note that a number of other introductory economics texts such as Mankiw, N.G., Taylor, M.P.: Economics (4th edition) or Mankiw, N.G.: Principles of Economics (7th edition) are available in the IES library. Also, there is a Czech-English dictionary specifically designed for you by one graduate of the Principles course, Michal Spišiak. It includes a translation of every key word from the Principles textbook. All course materials are posted in MS Teams, including lecture and seminar slides. Recordings of the lectures and seminars are available in MS Teams and on YouTube.

Requirements to the exam -

Course requirements

Students attend lectures and seminars, which are organised for their benefit. Students are encouraged to provide feedback during the semester so that teaching in ongoing seminars and lectures can be improved. Experience shows that there is a strong positive correlation between attendance at lectures and seminars and good results in exams.

Students sit in for an exam at the end of the semester (100% of the grade). In addition, students can obtain up to 5 extra points (see syllabus for details).

To pass the course, students are required to score at least 50% of points on the final exam (and this requirement applies no matter the situation with extra points) and, for the IEPS students, at least 50% of points on the home assignment. The final grade will be determined based on the intervals described in the syllabus.
