Teaching

This course introduces students to the main macroeconomic variables and provides different economic models to study how these variables are affected by policymakers and aggregate shocks. Students will gain insight into how the economy in general behaves and how this behavior affects their daily lives.

The course aims to help students understand the role of money, financial markets, financial institutions and monetary policy in the economy.

The objective of this course is to provide and equip students with the computational tools necessary to solve dynamic and stochastic models, with particular attention to classic macroeconomic problems.

This course will provide students an opportunity to learn the language commonly used in macroeconomics and the way the macro economy works.
