Lecture:	1 x 3 Hours Weekly
Syllabus:	This introductory level course introduces students to the economist's way of understanding key macroeconomic issues such as inflation, unemployment and economic growth. This is achieved by developing a simple model of the macro economy (the aggregate demand and supply model) and using this model to explain the factors causing these economic phenomena. Part of the course is devoted to developing an understanding of monetary and fiscal policy and how they can be used to influence the economic outcome. Other topics covered include the exchange rate, Classical and Keynesian approaches to macroeconomics and the Phillips curve model.
