No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1974–75 to 1988–89 (before that, 1971–72 used the number for Macro-Economics andPublic Policy); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Techniques from game theory for assessing the social and political influences in engineering decision making. Topics include metagame analysis, games with mistaken information, sensitivity analysis, dynamic games, probabilistic considerations, bargaining and realworld applications of all the foregoing concepts.

As printed in the 1982–83 to 1988–89 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

  • Very interesting course, no final and very assignment and project-based. Moves a bit slow and usually in the morning so not the right choice if you're looking for something challenging.
