Course Contents/Objectives/Teaching Method/Intended Learning Outcome
This course is designed to introduce students to classical and new topics in international trade from theoretical and empirical perspectives. It covers standard and academic materials commonly studied by economists in academia as well as international organizations such as the World Trade Organization, the International Monetary Fund, and the World Bank. After successfully completing this course, the students will be able to demonstrate their knowledge of academic studies on international trade.
Ideally, students have taken "国際貿易論ａ/国際経済論Ⅰ（ＩNTERNATIONAL TRADE A）" offered in the Fall semester. However, it is not a pre-requisite.
Given the increasing prevalence of empirical approaches in academic studies on international trade, this course covers basic methods of econometrics and their application to data.
