- Understand the concept of economic equilibrium and its role in economists’ use of simple models to
approximate controlled experiments in the natural sciences.
- Proficiently apply the economic way of thinking to explain economic and non-economic events using
simple models that focus on important variables while setting aside unnecessary complications.
- Distinguish positive from normative claims about economic events and policies.
- Appreciate the limitations of economic models for explaining economic and non-economic events.
- Use cost/benefit analysis to identify the trade-offs, including intended and unintended consequences,
of all choices.
- Explain the objectives, successes, and failures of government policies such as minimum wages,
rent controls, competition policy, environmental policy, trade policy, and tax and income redistribution policy.
- Find data measuring macroeconomic outcomes including GDP, economic growth, unemployment, inflation,
and understand the limitations of each measure.
- Describe the fundamental macroeconomic question of whether markets quickly self-adjust, and explain
both the hands-off and hands-on positions on the role of government fiscal and monetary policy.
- Come to an informed personal opinion about the appropriate role of government in macroeconomic policy.

- Introduction to the main topics of interest in macroeconomics, such as economic growth, business cycles, and labour market frictions.
- Developing a theoretical foundation and familiarity with rigorous analytical models in order to prepare the students for more advanced treatments of macroeconomic questions.
- Learning the basic concepts in macroeconomics, such as gross domestic product, national income accounting, inflation and price indices, labour market metrics, and business cycle terminology.
- Understanding, constructing, and using macroeconomic models tailored towards particular questions in order to assess how government policies or macroeconomic events affect the agents in the economy, such as consumers and firms, in a general equilibrium setting.
- Learning how and why to use micro-foundations (agent based modeling with rational expectations) to arrive at consistent aggregate economic implications, in line with the Lucas Critique.
- Understanding the difference between general equilibrium and partial equilibrium analyses; and thus the difference between micro- and macroeconomic approaches to economic questions.
