Learn how to model social and economic networks and their impact on human behavior. How do networks form, why do they exhibit certain patterns, and how does their structure impact diffusion, learning, and other behaviors? We will bring together models and techniques from economics, sociology, math, physics, statistics and computer science to answer these questions.

I loved everything so far, the quiz questions are well selected, but, I believe there are some notions which should be explained further mathematically.
The course is vast. The Professor is to the point and doesn't lack knowledge in his field. I'd recommend this course for anyone interested in Economics. Loved it.
Great survey course for social network analysis. Dr. Jackson's lectures motivated me to buy the book, and I hope to come back to this course later to work more on the optional parts.
I was new to network theory but the concepts were very well articulated. A whole new way of looking at what makes social relationships, favor exchange(s) and social networks work. Well worth the time.
