Introduces students to a variety of dynamic general equilibrium models that currently dominate the study of growth and economic fluctuations. These models include: neoclassical growth models, overlapping generations models, CAPM models, search models, and endogenous growth models.

These techniques include discrete time optimization, continuous time optimization, dynamic programming and model calibration.
