Game Theory

Game Theory is a mathematical model of strategic interaction among rational decision-makers. Coursera's Game Theory catalogue offers you a comprehensive understanding of how players make decisions in situations where the outcome depends not just on their own actions but also on the actions of others. You'll learn about the fundamental principles of game theory, including equilibrium concepts in different game settings, cooperative and non-cooperative games, repeated games, and Bayesian games. You'll also explore real-world applications of game theory in fields such as economics, political science, computer science, and biology. This understanding will equip you to model, analyze, and predict behavior in strategic situations.
