This is a course in applied econometrics and involves the application of econometric methods to empirically analyse important issues in economics. The course emphasizes the importance of data analytics in understanding economic model predictions by applying advanced regression techniques. These techniques can include instrumental variables, regression discontinuity, difference-in-differences, other panel data methods, big data analysis, and more. Students will learn to code and to estimate econometric models using current statistical programming software.
