The course has
been designed to develop ability to apply standard
theoretical concepts to economic
analysis of macroeconomic developments, with a focus on analytical
skills
necessary to understand and interpret real-world situations. Although
there is a strong theoretical core, the course focus is
on the practical application of economic relationships
to
problems, and on developing the ability to share
the insights that economic analysis can
provide. More specifically, the course provide students with ability (1) to analyze statistical data on gross domestic
product (GDP), balance-of-payments
(BOP), unemployment and inflation , (2) to make use of
formal
macroeconomic models, such as the saving-investment
balance, the AD-AS model, the Phillips curve, in order to interpret
the most important issues in fiscal and monetary policies in Poland and abroad, as well latest
developments of inflation, unemployment and
migration.
