1.1 — Introduction to I.O. — Class Content
Overview
Welcome to ECON 326 — Industrial Organization! Today’s lesson will be an overview of the content and the assignments of the course. Please read and familiarize yourself with the syllabus.
This is not just a “syllabus day,” as we need to hit the ground running, but today will give you a “big picture” look at this semester.
Readings
Today is introductory, but you may look at Chapter 1 if you wish, to remind you about the use of models in economics. Otherwise, please heed this timeless message:

Slides
Below, you can find the slides in two formats. Clicking the image will bring you to the html version of the slides in a new tab. The lower button will allow you to download a PDF version of the slides.
You can type h to see a special list of viewing options, and type o for an outline view of all the slides.
I suggest printing the slides beforehand and using them to take additional notes in class (not everything is in the slides)!
