Learning Outcomes
You should learn to formulate, implement, and interpret regression models of relationships among economic variables. Our focus will be on learning to match the econometric methods to the problem and to the data. In short, preparation to use econometrics effectively.
Most or all of the course is about methods that are useful for analyses of cross-sectional data and panel data. Typically, these methods are used for problems in microeconomics, i.e., problems having to do with the actions of individuals and firms.
