The course includes 40 hours of lectures, all delivered by the course instructor. Students have the option to attend two-thirds of the lectures online. Specifically, the first 16 hours will be held exclusively in person, while the remaining 24 hours will be delivered in a hybrid (blended) format. During these 24 hours, the professor will teach regularly in the classroom, and students may choose whether to attend online or in person. The lectures will be supplemented with examples and readings from economic and financial news sources, in order to contextualize the theoretical analysis and encourage in-class discussion.
