The course introduces participants to several key attributes of the Australian economy and discusses how they are influenced by both domestic and international forces.

Discussions will be centered around sound economic theories and reasoning, and utilize actual data whenever applicable.

Myself , Jyoti Aggarwal just completed this course but have not received certificate yet. paid 59$ to get the certificate.
I've gained wide knowledge of the Australian economy from the professor.
A breif introduction of the macroeconomy especially the period of GFC. Easy to understand. Thanks, Denny.
Great overview of the Australian economy and the role of both monetary and fiscal policy. Using the GFC to bring the learnings to life with real examples was a great way to conclude the course.
