The students should gain an understanding of centralmethods analysing linear and nonlinear dynamics in economic models andshould be able to apply them actively to new research problems(possibly occuring in the context of their doctoral thesis).
Lecture based on slides, presentations by students, written seminar paper
active aprticipation in class discussion,
preparation of a written seminar paper and oral presentation,

Participants should be explicitly interested in economic theory and in economic modelling.
