This course provides an introduction to modern dynamic general equilibrium models, bridging the gap between undergraduate and postgraduate approaches to macroeconomic analysis and equipping students with essential quantitative skills. Employing a common theoretical framework to unify the treatment of different aspects of the economy, the module addresses a number of important real-world issues that are of interest to macroeconomic policy makers, central banks, traders in financial markets, and economic consultancies. Topics to be covered may include: the overlapping generations model, real business cycles, empirical analysis of macroeconomic data, real estate and mortgage markets, and the macroeconomic consequences of ageing populations.
