1. Course Title:

Mathematical Economic Modeling

2. Language of Instruction:

Vietnamese

3. Course Code:

MAT608036

4. Credits:

3

5. Course Objectives:

Mathematical Models in Economics course is designed to equip students with modern macroeconomic models and dynamic analytical tools used in the study of economic growth, business cycles, and macroeconomic policy. The course focuses on exogenous and endogenous growth models, intertemporal optimization models, overlapping-generations models, Real Business Cycle (RBC) theory, and New Keynesian models with nominal rigidities. Through this course, students will develop the ability to analyze modern macroeconomic issues in a logical and rigorous manner, evaluate the effects of economic policies, and apply theoretical models to economic research and empirical analysis.

6. Brief Description of Course Content:

The course is designed to provide students with fundamental and advanced knowledge of modern macroeconomic models and dynamic analytical tools used in macroeconomic research. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to understand and apply economic growth models, intertemporal optimization models, overlapping-generations models, Real Business Cycle (RBC) theory, and New Keynesian models to analyze modern macroeconomic issues. In addition, students will be able to evaluate the effects of macroeconomic policies and apply theoretical models to research and empirical analysis.
