ECON 2105H - Honors Macro Economics


Honors Macro Economics is a more in-depth introduction to the principles of economics.  It introduces students to concepts that will enable them to understand and analyze economic aggregates and evaluate economic policies.  Students will study the foundation of economic analysis, learn the concepts of demand and supply, as well as price determination.  They will study money and credit systems, learn to determine the level of aggregate macroeconomic activity, to evaluate the impact of globalization on macroeconomic activity, and to identify underlying social goals.  This honors section is smaller and seminar-oriented; as a result, students receive more individualized attention from faculty members and enjoy an enhanced learning environment with other gifted students.  The honors classroom allows for greater development of scholarly potential through rich exchange of ideas and specialized assignments.
