Goals of the Summer School
The school will provide an introduction to Dynare and to Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) modeling.
The courses will focus on simulation and estimation of DSGE models with Dynare. It will be also the occasion to introduce the new features in Dynare 4.5 (still to be released).
Junior Maih (Norges Bank) will be the guest speaker, and will present the Markov-Switching rational expectations modelling with the RISE toolbox.
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 “laptop only” workshop. Each participant is required to come with his/her laptop computer with MATLAB version 7.5 (R2007b) 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 GNU Octave (free software, compatible with MATLAB syntax; see http://www.dynare.org/download/octave for details on GNU Octave installation).
