Goals of Summer School
The school will provide an introduction to Dynare and to Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) modeling. Dynare is a free sofware for simulating and estimating DSGE models.
The courses will focus on simulation, estimation of DSGE models as well as computation of optimal policy, identification and sensitivity analysis. It will be also the occasion to introduce the new features in Dynare 4.3 (to be released before the Summer School).
This Summer school is aimed at beginners as well as at more experienced researchers. PhD students are encouraged to participate.

Workshop organization
This is a "portable only'' workshop. Each participant is required to come with his/her portable computer with MATLAB version 7.0 or above installed. We will provide WiFi access, but participants shouldn't rely on it to access a MATLAB license server at their own institution. As an alternative to MATLAB, it is possible to use the free software GNU Octave, version 3.0 or higher (see DynareOctave).
