Welcome to UCSD Extension’s Financial Decision Making course. My basic approach to the subject matter is that theory which cannot be practiced is not good theory, BUT practice that is not based on theory [i.e., a logical, independently verifiable analytic framework] is not good practice. Thus we will strive for a balance of both theory and practice to provide a rigorous, comprehensive course. Please review the following syllabus and let me know if you have any questions or comments. I will do everything I can to make sure that this course will be a profitable and enjoyable learning experience for each and every member of the class. Please also remember that I am here to support you in the pursuit of your educational goals.
This course carries three quarter units of credit.
