事前学習の内容など,学生へのメッセージ |
Basic knowledge of Macroeconomics is desirable, but the most important thing is that you are interested in the subject. The PPT will be uploaded before the class, so students are encouraged to have a look at it before the class. Make sure you understand what we cover in the class. |
