Teaching methods
Plenary Lectures
During the plenary lectures, the professor presents the concepts and mechanisms associated to the different models.
The lectures follow the course outline presented above.
Exercise sessions (TA sessions)
Exercise sessions are carried out in small groups and aim at checking knowledge acquisition as well as applying the theoretical concepts presented in class to solve exercises and case studies. Students should review the corresponding lectures before the session to draw full benefit from them.
Those exercise sessions will also be partly devoted to the preparation of home assignments in which students are expected to manipulate macroeconomic data, read selected articles relating to macroeconomic topics and write reports.

Evaluation methods
The final grade consists of two parts:
The grade of the home assignments is automatically reported to the next session unless the student explicitly asks for representing them.
- home assignments (3 deadlines during the semester) ;
- written final exam (3h).
- 75 % for the written exam et 25 % for the home assignments if the score obtained at the written exam is at least 50 %;
- 85 % for the written exam et 15 % for the home assignments if the score obtained at the written exam is less than 50 %.
The grade of the home assignments is automatically reported to the next session unless the student explicitly asks for representing them.
