Class seminar
My seminar
・In macroeconomics, we systematically learn how macro variables (such as GDP, unemployment, inflation, and balance of payments) that aggregate the economic activities of individual consumers and companies on a single-country basis are determined and changed.
・In the theory of Japanese economy, we aim to acquire the ability to understand various problems faced by the Japanese economy from the perspectives of macro (one country as a whole), meso (industry), and micro (company). At the same time, students will also learn about the dynamics of Japan's economy, such as when these problems are attributed to the postwar Japanese economy.
Social Activities
