Learning outcomes
The course aims to introduce students to the fundamental topics of macroeconomics. This discipline deals with the aggregate functioning of economic systems determined by the collective behaviour of consumers and firms, by the state intervention on the economy and by the international relations with the rest of the world. The course provides students also with a knowledgeable understanding of the scientific language and methodology adopted by macroeconomics. Its theory is made up of mathematical tools and models that formalize mechanisms behind the markets of goods, money and labour, since their interaction determines the level of national income, employment, and prices. At the end of the course students will be able to make use of such analytical tools to understand and interpret the factors steering the evolution of economic systems at aggregate national level and to evaluate the macroeconomic effects of Central Bank and fiscal policy interventions.

Examination Methods
The aim of the exam is to verify the student’s understanding of the theory analyzed in class, as well as the ability to apply the theory to solve numerical exercises.
The final exam consists of two parts: a multiple-choice test (30% of the final grade), and two exercises (70% of the final grade). The multiple-choice test is made up by 15 questions and is graded as follows: correct answer +2, wrong answer -2/3, no answer 0. Students receiving a grade of 9/30 or below in the multiple-choice test fail the exam. If the score in the multiple-choice test is 10/30 or greater, the final grade will be given by the weighted average of the grades from the two parts. Both the multiple-choice and the exercises will be based on the entire program covered during the course.
------ mid-term exam -------
There will be a non-compulsory mid-term evaluation, in the form of a multiple-choice test (like in the final exam) that will evaluate students' knowledge of the topics covered in the first half of the course. Students achieving a grade of 15/30 or higher will be exempted from doing the multiple-choice test during the 1 appello of the summer session. The final grade will be given by the weighted average of the mid-term grade (30%) plus the grade achieved on the two exercises during the final exam (70%).
Students that chose to not do the mid-term, or that achieve a grade below 15/30, will have to do the entire exam during the exam sessions. Students that have achieved a grade of at least 15/30 in the mid-term exam, but still decide to do the multiple-choice test during the official exam session can do so. However, in this case the grade of the mid-term exam will be lost.
Type D and Type F activities
Nei piani didattici di ciascun Corso di studio è previsto l’obbligo di conseguire un certo numero di crediti formativi mediante attività a scelta (chiamate anche "di tipologia D e F").
Oltre che in insegnamenti previsti nei piani didattici di altri corsi di studio e in certificazioni linguistiche o informatiche secondo quanto specificato nei regolamenti di ciascun corso, tali attività possono consistere anche in iniziative extracurriculari di contenuto vario, quali ad esempio la partecipazione a un seminario o a un ciclo di seminari, la frequenza di laboratori didattici, lo svolgimento di project work, stage aggiuntivo, eccetera.
Come per ogni altra attività a scelta, è necessario che anche queste non costituiscano un duplicato di conoscenze e competenze già acquisite dallo studente.
Quelle elencate in questa pagina sono le iniziative extracurriculari che sono state approvate dal Consiglio della Scuola di Economia e Management e quindi consentono a chi vi partecipa l'acquisizione dei CFU specificati, alle condizioni riportate nelle pagine di dettaglio di ciascuna iniziativa.
Si ricorda in proposito che:
- tutte queste iniziative richiedono, per l'acquisizione dei relativi CFU, il superamento di una prova di verifica delle competenze acquisite, secondo le indicazioni contenute nella sezione "Modalità d'esame" della singola attività;
- lo studente è tenuto a inserire nel proprio piano degli studi l'attività prescelta e a iscriversi all'appello appositamente creato per la verbalizzazione, la cui data viene stabilita dal docente di riferimento e pubblicata nella sezione "Modalità d'esame" della singola attività.
ATTENZIONE: Per essere ammessi a sostenere una qualsiasi attività didattica, inlcuse quelle a scelta, è necessario essere iscritti all'anno di corso in cui essa viene offerta. Si raccomanda, pertanto, ai laureandi delle sessioni di dicembre e aprile di NON svolgere attività extracurriculari del nuovo anno accademico, cui loro non risultano iscritti, essendo tali sessioni di laurea con validità riferita all'anno accademico precedente. Quindi, per attività svolte in un anno accademico cui non si è iscritti, non si potrà dar luogo a riconoscimento di CFU.

Internships
The curriculum of the three-year degree courses (CdL) and master's degree courses (CdLM) in the economics area includes an internship as a compulsory training activity. Indeed, the internship is considered an appropriate tool for acquiring professional skills and abilities and for facilitating the choice of a future professional outlet that aligns with one's expectations, aptitudes, and aspirations. The student can acquire further competencies and interpersonal skills through practical experience in a work environment.
