課程概述

This course is about
macroeconomics- the study of
economic performance, money,
inflation, government
policies, business cycles
and economic growth. Why are
some countries so poor while
other economies keep
growing? What causes the
economy to fluctuate
(business cycle)? Can
government use any policies
to prevent the recession?
What causes inflation or
deflation? These are only
some important macroeconomic
issues that we will cover in
this course. Hopefully,
after this course, you will
be able to give answers to
these questions. We will
also discuss some policy
implications in this course. 

課程目標
In the first semester, I
will introduce the
variable/data used to
measure economic performance
and then will focus on
developing the macroeconomic
model to explain the
phenomenon we observe. A
modest objective is for
students to be able to read
and comprehend daily
economic reports in the
news. With the final
objective of understanding
what brought about this
event, the nature of the
problem, how will it develop
and what is it leading to.  
課程要求
Grades will be given
according to 40% of the
midterm and 60% of the
final. Although you do not
need to turn in the problem
sets, about 15% (or higher)
of the exam will be based on
the assigned problems.
The midterm will be given on
11/9/2004. The final exam
will be given on 1/11/2005.
If you want to take this
course, you should make sure
now that you are able to
take these exams.
