| Course Description | How to match people to other people or goods is an important problem in society. Just think of some examples such as (1) student placement in schools, (2) labor markets where workers and firms are matched to one another, and (3) organ transplantation, in which patients are matched to potential donors. The economics of “matching and market design” has analyzed these problems and improved real-life institutions in recent years. For example, economists have helped (1) municipal governments design their school choice programs, (2) medical communities reorganize their hiring procedure, and (3) organize systematic kidney exchange mechanisms to give kidneys to as many patients as possible. In this lecture series, I start with a very basic theory and move quickly to research frontier, covering various issues in market design. The discussion is primarily theoretical, but with a close attention to practical applications. |
