ECON (508): Monetary Theory (Spring 2025)

This course offers a solid review of key monetary theories with emphasis on time series

applications to monetary economics. Here, we analyze the key fundamental models in monetary

theory. We finish the course by examining the monetary transmission mechanisms (for example,

the link between monetary policy, prices, and output) in an empirical fashion.

BUS (351Q): Applied Business Analytics (Fall 2024 - Spring 2025)

This course relies on statistical theory and advanced quantitative methods for business analytics.

It emphasizes the importance of developing strong quantitative skills by bolstering proficiency in

Microsoft Excel and RStudio.

ECON (201): Principles of Macroeconomics (Spring 2024 - Spring 2025)

This course provides a solid introduction to macroeconomics. The first part of this course covers

national income accounting and the determinants of long-run economic growth. In the second

part, we analyze the factors that influence the business cycle and the banking system.

ECON 372: International Economcics (Spring 2024-Spring 2025)

This course offers a solid foundation in international trade theory and international monetary

relations. In the first part, the course focuses on the classical model of trade, the standard theory

conduct multiple regression analysis with qualitative variables (for example, the course

introduces students to the difference-in-difference estimator). Students learn how to conduct

research by using the following econometric methods: vector autoregression, panel data

This course provides a rigorous foundation in advanced microeconomics and macroeconomics.

The first part of the curriculum focuses on economic equilibrium, solving the optimization

problem of the firm (constrained and unconstrained optimization), consumer theory, cost

analysis, market structures (perfect competition, monopolistic competition, pure monopoly, and

oligopoly), and pricing strategies (bundling, price discrimination, and two-part tariff). Whereas

the second part of the course deals with the role of macroeconomics (for example, fiscal policy,

exchange rate policies, and monetary policies) in understanding the business cycle.
