Teoria dos Jogos: Da Teoria à Prática from Coursera

Nossas boas-vindas ao Curso Teoria dos Jogos: Da Teoria à Prática.

Neste curso, você aprenderá que a Teoria dos Jogos é um ramo da Economia que trata da análise da tomada de decisões quando todos os tomadores de decisões são presumivelmente racionais, e cada um procura prever as ações e reações de seus concorrentes. Desta forma, terá subsídios para tomar decisões. Por exemplo, de fazer ou não acordos, desencorajar a entrada no mercado de potenciais concorrentes, de preços quando as condições de demanda e custo apresentam variações ou novos concorrentes entrarem no mercado, dentre outras.

Ao final deste curso, você será capaz de jogar o jogo da estratégia e tomar decisões, levando em consideração que o resultado previsto é a melhor solução para todos os players.

Este curso é composto por quatro módulos, disponibilizados em semanas de aprendizagem. Cada módulo é composto por vídeos, leituras e testes de verificação de aprendizagem. Ao final de cada módulo, temos uma avaliação de verificação dos conhecimentos.

Estamos muito felizes com sua presença neste curso e esperamos que você tire o máximo de proveito dos conceitos aqui apresentados.

Bons estudos!
