Course Description
Honors Principles of Macroeconomics uses the pedagogical methods common to all Honors courses: trans-disciplinary, writing-intensive, collaborative, and experiential instruction. As an honors course, there is a focus on analytical writing and an emphasis on a higher degree of student participation and leadership in class discussions and other interactive teaching/learning techniques that are generally unsuitable for larger undergraduate courses. This course provides an introduction to aggregate economic analysis, including the analysis of: market systems; aggregate measures of the economy; macroeconomic equilibrium; money, the banking system and the role of central banks; monetary and fiscal policy; international trade and exchange rates; and macroeconomic growth.
