Advanced Topics in Macroeconomics

This course is offered every two years (even years alternating with Professor Evers).

This course is offered as part of the Ph.D. program in Economics but it is also open for Master students in Economics. The objective of this course is to make students familiar with modern macroeconomic theory (and some empirical work). The course thus aims at giving students a thorough foundational understanding of the methodological approaches of modern macroeconomics which is conducted on the basis of formal mathematical (structural) models. The lecture contains formal elements to build intuition and provide insights into why modern macroeconomics is built upon specific models, what their respective virtues are and what are their shortcomings.
