Course Purpose and Topics:

Household economics is a branch of economics that studies outcomes of
household decision-making and the processes by which households make
decisions.

Household outcomes that have been analyzed with economic
analysis include consumption, labor supply and other uses of time,
household formation (marriage and cohabitation) and dissolution, demand for
health and other forms of human capital, fertility and investment in
children's human capital, demand for environmental and other public goods,
migration, and demand for religiosity.

After an introduction and presentation of the conceptual framework the
course will address the following outcomes:

  • Marriage,
  • Labor supply,
  • Household production, and
  • Household finance.

An overview of the policies and performance of the Review of Economics of
the Household, the journal edited by Prof. Grossbard, will also be included in the course.
