Macroeconomics

Macroeconomics translates to business decision-making: interest rates, inflation, employment, and growth directly influence your organization's planning, pricing, and investment. This intermediate course teaches you to navigate that translation—using terminology precisely, understanding institutional roles (central banks, governments, markets), and building intuition through diagrams and equations. Rather than memorizing models, you'll learn to read economic data, trace causal chains, and assess how policy changes ripple through business. The course emphasizes real contemporary issues: inflation control, stimulus effectiveness, trade dynamics. By course end, you'll engage in substantive debate about macroeconomic strategy and confidently apply those insights to your industry and firm.
