113-2_高新技術發展、智慧財產權暨企業社會責任
應用經濟學系
教學目標
The course provides students with the following employability skills. Academic skills (literacy, numeracy, ICT skills, and communication skills) are enhanced through essay‐writing, mathematical problem‐solving and the use of ICT equipment. Students are encouraged to carry out research and information gathering for term papers and as background reading. External awareness is promoted through real world case studies. Personal development planning (target setting and time management) is also promoted. This course investigates important issues facing firms that compete in high technology industries such as computers, electronics, telecommunications and pharmaceuticals. The course emphasises the general issues involved in the creation, imitation, protection, purchase and sale of new technologies in order to create sustainable competitive advantage. Careful consideration is given to the interaction amongst the management of new technology, overall competitive strategies of the firm and corporate social responsibility. We first review the neoclassical basics of innovation and the rationale behind allowing property rights over those innovations. This leads into a discussion of intellectual property protection mechanisms and knowledge spillovers. We take the risk and uncertainty involved in the research process as important characteristic of innovation. We analyse, therefore, the strategies toward risk, discuss the evaluation of innovation projects and study the implications for the financing of innovation. This course continues with an analysis of how the incentives to innovate are related to market characteristics such as the level of competition in the market, and how the competition for innovations can be studied. Important topics are illustrated and motivated with case studies with an emphasis on corporate social responsibility.

113-2_都市經濟學
應用經濟學系
教學目標
Students will learn a set of theories and acquire knowledges for topics in urban economics, including the definition of cities, how cities are formed, agglomeration economics, local public goods, land and housing, and city management. Students will learn the applicability and limitations of the theories covered in this course, and are expected to comprehend and analyze economics events with economic intuitions.

理論講述與討論-50.00%;個案分析或作品賞析-0.00%;專題實作與報告-50.00%;田野調查-0.00%;實驗-0.00%;其他-0.00%

課程內容與進度
本課程為都市經濟學入門課程,目的為以經濟學的方式了解都市經濟的運作方式,以及都市生活的各種面向。本課程首先會討論都市的定義方式,接著討論都市為什麼會在經濟活動中透過群聚效應(agglomeration)自然產生,以及都市間的互動如何形塑整個經濟體系。接下來我們將討論都市的內部結構,這包含了房地產市場、土地利用、地方性公共財的提供與租稅等都市管理相關課題。

This course is designed as an introductory course of urban economics. It covers fundamental principles developed in economics to understand the functioning/workings of an urban economy and the various aspects of urban life. Firstly, the course begins with the definition of a city, and why cities form by introducing the economics of agglomeration, and how cities interact to form the urban system of the entire economy. These factors affect all urban phenomena. Secondly, the course analyzes the internal spatial structure of a city by developing a theory of commuting, housing demand and housing production. It then analyzes transportation and land/housing issues in more detail. On transportation, we focus on the economics of traffic congestions, the rationale for congestion pricing (ERP), and the so-called fundamental law of highway congestion. The discussion on land and housing, will address various housing phenomena such as tenure choice and location. The courses will discuss the optimality of local public good provision, and connect local public finance and housing markets with land taxation. Finally, the course addresses the economics of urban planning to comprehend various urban forms that are found in different cities in the world.

The course will be taught in Chinese while the materials will mainly be in English.

評分標準
課堂參與30%:本課程鼓勵同學們於課堂期間(包含中場休息)發言。只要是課程內容相關問題與討論都計入發言次數。最後的成績是根據全班的發言次數分布決定,但只要肯發言這部分的成績至少會讓你有被撫慰到的感覺。

期中考30%:出題來源為課堂講義。不提供補考,因故缺考者須提前告知以進行後續安排。

課堂報告40%:同學們可以個人或小組方式,從期初提供的專題當中挑一題進行研究(完整題目將另行公布,過去同學們的報告成果也會放上網供大家參考)。這部分的成績分成投影片/書面報告(20%)和口頭報告(20%)兩部分。投影片/書面報告部分篇幅限制為25張投影片內或是報告兩千字內。參考文獻目錄不計入字數和篇幅,但須依照學術引用格式走。報告每組限制20-40分鐘,如有多位組員則每位組員都需要上台報告負責部分的內容。因報告的題目以個案分析與比較為主,同學們仍有不少發揮空間,只要明顯有用心成績都不會太差。

報告的時程安排與分組人數上限根據修課同學們的人數決定。但以開學第四周開始每周最多兩組同學上台為原則。為鼓勵同學們及早報告,最早報告的同學們每人加總成績五分(原則上為開學第四第五周報告者,但會依之後正式修課人數進行調整)。


Class Participation :30%
Midterm :30%
Term Project :40%

Midterm:
Please note that NO makeup examination will be provided. If you are absent from the scheduled exams, you will receive zero marks for this grade component. Please contact the instructor early if you have difficulties joining the exams.

Class Participation:
Class participation is composed of 30% of in-class interaction. Students are encouraged to speak up in class by asking or answering questions. You should ask questions if clarifications of the course materials are needed. Students who speak up regularly will generally receive an acceptable, if not an excellent rating. Students should elaborate their arguments as detail as possible when in discussion or answering questions. Answers without at least some elaborations or totally irrelevant have negative effect for this part. Refer to the Appendix for how past students have performed.

Term Project:
Students are required to undertake a term project, either individually or in group. The objective is for the students to conduct more in-depth studies to topics related to urban economics. Each group can choose a topic listed in the Appendix, or to propose a new topic and work on it upon approval by the instructor. Different groups may choose the same topic, provided that there is enough differentiation. (For example, in the case of picking cities and make comparisons, if the cities chosen are different, it is deemed a different topic.) Some examples of past group projects will be provided as a reference.

The grading consists of two parts:
(1) In-class Presentation (20%):
20 to 40 minutes by default. Each member of the group has to present.

(2) Slides (20%):
The presentation slides must be submitted to the instructor in both hard and soft copy in two weeks after the presentation. The length of the slides cannot exceed 25 slides or 2000 words. Exceeding either 25 slides or 2000 words will result in a penalty in grade. A full list of references must be included at the end and it does not count toward the page limit or word count. Proper citations are needed throughout the slides.

By the end of Week 3, each group should have chosen their topic and scheduled the date of presentation with the instructor. In the case of picking two cities and making comparisons, please specify which two cities are picked. Presentation starts from Week 4, with at most 2 groups to present per week. You are encouraged to present early. Early birds receive 5 total grade marks as bonus.

The plan here might be adjusted according to the number of students taking this course.

113-2_經濟社會學
應用經濟學系
教學目標
目的:經濟社會學是一門探討經濟活動背後的社會制度與變遷的課程。本課程的企圖是想引領經濟系學生進行經濟與社會的對話,理解經濟鑲嵌於社會脈絡之中,而經濟活動亦會影響社會的變遷。兩個學門(包含政治)互相交錯,學子該靈活運用不被各自學科的傳統思維左右。 本課程有兩大目的,第一是讓學子瞭解經濟社會學的學科核心;第二是引領學子從經濟社會的觀點,瞭解當代資本主義的本質,解構當代資本主義的運作模式,理解當代經濟活動背後有社會網絡、文化、認知、制度、性別、家庭等等的社會基礎,並從中建立自己在當代經濟體系中的人生觀。 本課程綜觀歷史、社會科學與哲學,為了清楚闡述此課程,我將課程分為三大部分。第一部份是總論,介紹經濟社會學科的核心內容,找出當代台灣經濟社會關切議題的核心焦點;第二部分探討資本主義的生產觀點如產業網路的建構、居住正義、貧富不均;第三部分討論當代資本主義的消費觀點。
