Description

Decision and Game theory

Qualifications

    • know the most prominent decision theories.
    • understand how rational solutions may be achieved by using classical decision models.
    • solve decision problems by using DT models and methods. They find the strategic aspect of a problem and transform it into a simplified problem.
    • analyze decision situations.
    • evaluate Investments with EUT, MV and PT,. explain and interpret the assumptions of these methods.
    • know methods in decision theory.
    • use methods and models on unknown decision situations. Calculate optimal solutions and equilibria.
    • compare different methods for measuring and controlling risk and uncertainty in decision processes.
    • evaluate decision methods in mini cases and find appropriate models for solving typical problems.
    • understand and critically discuss the arguments of fellow students.
    • listen carefully, read and repeat, practice until they understand the logic and mathematics behind models.
    • work together and motivate other students who tend to give up as a reaction to the difficulty of mathematical problems.
