\nThis is an introductory workshop to the modeling of macroeconomy.
\nWhile the workshop is meant for graduate students and professionals, it does not require prior knowledge of the complexities involved in DSGE (DSGE) modeling and or the RISE toolbox, which will be used for applications.<\/p>\n
\nThe intention of the introductory workshop is not to train participants to become specialists in the field but instead for them to understand a basic exposure to the main techniques involved in solving and analyzing DSGE models so that they may start using those techniques in their work. Although no prior knowledge of DSGE modeling is assumed it is a fast-paced training and additional reading is provided to help participants to consolidate material. By the end of the workshop participants should:-Understand the economic foundations of DSGE models and how they relate to policy issues-Be able to write dynamic models in a general form suitable for solution, simulation and estimation in a computer using the RISE toolbox.-Implement basic solution and simulation techniques to analyze DSGE models, showing how the model economies respond to different shocks.<\/p>\nLecture 1: Constant-parameter DSGE modeling and Introduction to RISE (10\/26)<\/h5>\n
