Course Description

Our life is highly involved with public finance. We pay taxes and also receive services provided by the government and local authorities. Public finance is a discipline that studies the public part of the government and public enterprises using the analysis method of economics. Finance reflects the state of society like a "mirror" and has an inseparable relationship with our lives. Human beings have encountered COVID-19, and as a countermeasure, "fiscal mobilization" is greatly requested. This would be an event that proved the role and importance of public finance.
"Finance II" is a continuation of "Finance I", and after briefly confirming the basics of public finance, we will mainly explain local finance.
Then, I would like to combine "Finance I" and "Finance II" to maximize the thinking ability that university students should have. "Finance I" focuses on using your expertise to solidify your own ideas. In "Finance II", we will add the wisdom of the group, think about a certain problem together, and develop the ability to investigate what is lacking or what we want to deepen by free talk.
In this course, students will study DP1 and DP2.
