Course Description

This is an intermediate macroeconomic course taught in English. This course will mainly teach the neoclassical framework: (1) neoclassical growth theory, and (2) neoclassical business cycle. We will go through both theory and data to see how macroeconomists answer economic questions. 

Course Objective
This course will be taught in the form of flip-course: watching lecture videos at home and come to the classroom for activities.

All course materials, videos, and grades will be posted in the NTU Cool. 
Course Requirement
First week in-classroom lecture and math review.
Starting from the second week, online lecture. I will upload the lecture video every Monday. You have to finish watching and learning the lecture on time every week. We will meet Thursday 10:30-11:30 in the classroom for Q&A and class activities.
