Module overview

The main objective of this module is to expose students to the state-of-the-art discussion in a range of macroeconomic topics: growth, unemployment, taxation, and monetary policy. The approach is to study a simplified version of some widely used models in the current macroeconomic literature. Emphasis will be put on understanding model assumptions in order to identify the key factors shaping the response of these models to key policy questions.
