Section Information for Fall 2023

This course cannot be used to fulfill PhD requirements.

The course draws on empirical and theoretical insights from multiple fields within economics. The objective is to understand the role of gender in economic decision-making, and the changing significance, timing, and meaning of work, career, and family. In addition, we will consider the interplay between culture, norms and gender, and the impact on economic decision-making and outcomes.  The course focuses mostly on the developed world, but we will occasionally contrast this with a global perspective.
