SUMMARY:Macroeconomics III
DESCRIPTION:Course type\nIWH-DPE Foundation Course\, CGDE First-year Course \nLecturers\nProfessor Dr Matthias Meier (U Mannheim) and Professor Dr Malte Rieth (MLU) \nSummary\nThis is the third course of the first-year triple sequence in Macroeconomics. \nThe focus of the first part of this course is on the implications of heterogeneous agents in macroeconomics. In doing so\, this course introduces basic tools of modern macroeconomics and discusses various applications. The main topics of this course are consumption and savings choices by households and investment choices by firms\, with a particular emphasis on the role of imperfect credit markets for both households and firms. The course aims to connect tightly with empirical evidence and to analyze the scope for government interventions. \nThe second part of the course introduces basic concepts of time series analysis\, including short examples and applications to illustrate the statistical concepts. We first cover univariate time series\, focusing on stationary and a short treatment of non-stationary data. We then consider multivariate time series models in the form of vector autoregressions in both reduced form and structural form. \nSchedule\n16.10.2026          09:30-11:00 and 13:30-15:00      IWH\, Leipziger Str. 100\, 3rd floor\, Conference Room\n30.10.2026          09:30-11:00 and 13:30-15:00      IWH\, Leipziger Str. 100\, 3rd floor\, Conference Room\n13.11.2026          10:30-12:00 and 12:30-14:00      IWH\, Leipziger Str. 100\, 3rd floor\, Conference Room\n27.11.2026          10:30-12:00 and 12:30-14:00      IWH\, Leipziger Str. 100\, 3rd floor\, Conference Room \nContent\n\nCredit Market Frictions\nHeterogeneous Consumers\nHeterogeneous Firms\nTime Series\n\nCourse requirements\nAttendance at all lectures is mandatory and a prerequisite to take the exam. \nInformation on examination and grading regulations will be provided in the first half of 2026. \nRequired Reading\n1.
