Dr Simon Angus (Associate Professor, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia)

Brief Bio

Dr SIMON ANGUS BA, BSci (Hons), PhD UNSW joined the Department of Economics, Monash University, as a Lecturer in 2008 after working for two years as a lecturer in in the School of Economics, UNSW. In Jan 2018 he was made Associate Professor of Economics at Monash. His PhD dissertation entitled, 'Economic Networks: Communication, Cooperation & Complexity' extended a game theoretic analysis of network formation, and agent behaviour on dynamic, ad-hoc networks. He has a keen interest in the Science of Complexity arising from his diverse background across science and engineering, which has so far resulted in research projects spanning self-organising polymer films, systems biology models of cancer, complex-adaptive neural regulation of fatigue, and a novel open-ended evolutionary approach to technology networks. Recent and current projects include the study of coordination outcomes under coalitional updating in social networks and its application to evolutionary anthropology and cognitive science, and the study of human behaviour from global internet activity. Simon has an affiliation with the Santa Fe Institute (SFI) (NM, USA) through being selected to attend workshop and summer school residential programs in 2004 and 2007 as a doctoral student. Simon also has a strong interest in the scholarly approach to best-practice teaching and learning. In 2011 Simon was recognised by the Australian Learning and Teaching Council with a Citation for Outstanding teaching. In 2010 he launched a new resource for Economics students, EconomicsNow! (http://www.econnow.com/) which features podcasts and articles on Economic Development, Climate Change and Economics thinking in general. He's written extensively about his experiences introducing summative peer-review at the Open Learning blog.

Units Taught

Current Teaching Responsibilities

  1. (S1, 2009 -) ECC2800: Prosperity, Poverty & Sustainability (Handbook) PPS Unit Guide (2010) (.pdf)

    • A new unit (introduced S1, 2009) that deals with long-run growth, the determinants of poverty, poverty alleviation and the impact of climate change on developed and developing countries. It has no pre-requisites, so it is perfect for a non-BusEco student who is keen to get stuck into the big Economics issues shaping our times.

Previous

Monash 2010-2012

  1. (S2, 2010 - 2012) ECC3860: Integrated Economic Modelling (Handbook) IEM Unit Guide (2010) (.pdf)

    • A new unit (introduced S2, 2010) that builds on the shorter six-week offering of ECC3855 (see below), teaching a Complex Systems perspective on the economy together with an agent-based modelling toolset. We deal head-on with the difficult modelling challenges of modern economics: the dual feedbacks from the 'macro' to the 'micro' and from the 'micro' to the 'macro'. The specific application example will be how to handle the economics of climate change, migration, conflict and growth.

Monash 2008

  1. (S1, 2008) ECC5650: Advanced Micro Theory (Handbook)

    • Post-graduate level micro -- proofs and propositions with sets.
  2. (S1, 2008) ECC2810: Globalisation and Economic Systems (Handbook)

    • A critical look at the major organisational and ideological economic arrangements of the 20th C. including Stalinist and Leninist Russia, the Scandanavian welfare state, Japan's post-war boom, and of course, the contemporary market economy. For a taste, see The Commanding Heights documentary online.

  3. (S2, 2008) ECC3855: Complex Systems & Agent-based Modelling (Pre-Honours topic)

    • A primer in complex systems and agent-based modelling, run for 6 weeks in the pre-honours unit. See the excellent student projects here: ECC3855 Project Exhibit

UNSW 2006-2007

  1. ECON1201: Quantitative Methods A
    • An introductory maths unit focussing on Financial maths, Probability primer, Linear algebra (with an emphasis on using software), Linear programming, Calculus (up to constrained optimization in several variables).
    • With Judith Watson, we undertook a comprehensive review of 'QMA' including content, assessment and lecture delivery, some sampel fruit from this review process are given here:

    • The updated Course Outline (.pdf)]

    • An Example lecture (.pdf)

    • The corresponding Example Slides (.pdf)

  2. ECONX: Game Theory and Business Strategy
    • A Game Theory primer including: Normal and Extensive form games; Nash, SPNE solution concepts; Mixed strategies and solutions; Evolutionary games; Bargaining; and Duopoly solutions.
    • What's Game Theory? Try a primer article written for ECHO, the UNSW FCE students' society journal: Download (.pdf)

Unit and Teaching Evaluation scores

In the interests of full disclosure, I'm publishing here my teaching evaluations. The unit evaluations are available to students and staff of Monash, but the teaching evaluations (which are voluntary) are not. However, I feel it is good practice to allow students to know what they are getting. Like any teacher, I have some weaknesses in teaching and some strengths. I care a lot about my teaching, and aim to improve.

Note: Since there's now a lot of these links, I've summarised the Unit Evaluations across the years I've been at Monash for simplicity. The x-axis shows the questions that students are asked. The y-axis shows the median students give me, weighted by response rate across the various units and cohorts for a given year. I include the Faculty (BusEco) avg. median for comparison.

(Note on 2014: I introduced a completely new feedback and assessment tool to the ECC2800/APG4429 unit in S1 (a peer-review module for the pre- and major- essay assignments). Since little else was altered, I attribute the general drop in responses to this major change. The first iteration of any major innovation has teething problems! I'm thankful to the students of 2014 who helped me see what worked and didn't. I hope to improve the approach for 2015 and beyond.)

Churching

  1. I am part of City on a Hill -- a fantastic church that is all about knowing Jesus and making him known throughout Melbourne. Come and visit some time!

  2. Many Roooms -- I was part of a homeless project called Many Rooms, which so far has one operational 'room', called 'The Kitchen', which runs out of the North Melbourne Community centre every Saturday, feeding a hearty meal to the homeless.

  3. The Simeon Network -- the network to be part of on campus -- academics who are committed to knowing and sharing the one Truth that first inspired the foundation of the great 'uni-vers-ities'.
