Years delivered: 2025-2026

Welcome to the University of Pretoria and the Department of Economics! We are excited to have you in Economics 110 (EKN 110). Everyday, we make economic decisions, some consciously, others without even realising it. EKN 110 is your gateway to understanding the forces behind these choices and how they shape our world. In this course, you will master the fundamental principles that help explain everyday economic challenges. You will learn to apply the economic perspective, think critically about economic issues, and analyse problems objectively. But more than that, we hope to spark a lifelong interest in economics and the economy, empowering you to make informed decisions in your studies, career, and beyond.  Enjoy!

Note: Class slides will only be available after we have completed the chapter in class.
