This is the second course in the Macroeconomics sequence at the undergraduate level. The focus of this course is studying economic outcomes in the long run. We will primarily be learning about theoretical models pertaining to economic growth and current empirical patterns associated with it. We will discuss the different sources of growth: technological change, accumulation of physical and human capital, population growth, geography, and government. Students are expected to be well-versed in concepts of functions, derivatives, integrals, and ordinary differential equations.
