In the sophomore course on macroeconomics, you are expected to obtain a solid understanding of modern macroeconomics at an undergraduate level. Although the freshman course Macroeconomics is focused on traditional Keynesian macroeconomics with graphical style, this intermediate course employs both graph and mathematics such as calculus and optimization to help you taste microfoundation of macroeconomics. Selected topics covered in this course are: (1) a general equilibrium one-period model; (2) a general equilibrium two-period model without investment; (3) a general equilibrium two-period model with investment; and (4) a monetary intertemporal model.
Preliminary Courses: calculus, microeconomics, macroeconomics.
