Course Catalog Description
This course introduces students to the main approaches economists use to describe how the economy works at the aggregate level. Topics covered include economic growth, business cycles, the determinants of aggregate employment, unemployment, and inflation, and the effects of monetary and fiscal policy. Topics covered are similar to those in 100B, but this course uses calculus more intensively and is intended for students seeking a more mathematical approach.
