LAW 6768
Public Finance

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

In the U.S., federal government expenditures represent over one-third of the nation's GDP annually. Yet few seem to know much about the law-governed processes of federal budgeting, appropriating funds for, or otherwise financing US government operations. Still less do they generally understand the aims or consequences - short term and longer term - of these essential public sector activities economy-wide.

When Offered Spring.

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: A basic understanding of some of the foundational principles of finance - such as those taught in Accounting, Business Organizations, Corporate Finance, or Financial Institutions.
