The Course
Global Macroeconomics (ECO 120), is the other general education principles course offered by the Economics Department. The course is required of all College of Business majors as well as serving a few non-business majors. Like ECO 110 the course is primarily filled with freshman and sophomore students majoring in one of the business disciplines.
The course itself is a bit different than traditional macro courses due to its location in the general education program. The course focuses more heavily on international considerations than a traditional first course in macro would. Our lesson involves looking at how students come to learn and understand the determination of exchange rates and specifically understanding Purchasing Power Parity.
