1.
Outline
This course will consist of lectures on basic level macroeconomics. Those who registered for this course are expected to have credits for "Introductory Economics". At first, a basic model of deriving equilibrium level of national income will be taught. Following the first part, the IS-LM model will be introduced. In the first and second part of this course, price level is assumed to be constant. After the second part, this assumption is relaxed. In the third part of this course, the aggregate demand and aggregate supply model will be lectured. If we have time, discussions about inflation will be introduced.

2.
Objectives
There are two objectives in this course. The first objective is to learn basic level macroeconomics. The second is to apply knowledge of macroeconomics in order to consider current economic topics from a critical viewpoint.
