MIT Sloan is a world-class business school long renowned for thought leadership and the ability to successfully partner theory and practice.

The MIT Economics Department today is a vibrant collection of faculty and students.

This course is an introduction to game theory and strategic thinking. Ideas such as dominance, backward induction, Nash equilibrium, evolutionary stability, commitment, credibility, asymmetric information, adverse selection, and signaling are discussed and applied to games played in class and to examples drawn from economics, politics, the movies, and elsewhere.
