Introduction to Macroeconomic Analysis: A Data Driven Approach

Undergraduate / Graduate

This course offers a comprehensive exploration of neoclassical macroeconomic models, designed for students who have previously studied the principles of macroeconomics. The course is divided into five key modules: (i) economic growth and production, (ii) consumption and savings, (iii) government finances, (iv) money and the price level, and (v) unemployment. Throughout each module, we extensively utilize relevant data to enhance the understanding of theoretical concepts. By the end of the course, students will not only possess the ability to interpret macroeconomic news and articles but also analyze policies through a model-based framework.
