Course Syllabus
Abstract
The course is designed for first-year graduate (PhD) students in Economics and Management. Its main goal is to familiarize the students with contemporary methods of econometric research in economics and management. The course is of applied nature: The material is presented, whenever possible, in a non-technical way, examples of empirical studies published in leading international journals are discussed, and the lectures are supplemented by exercises in the computer lab.The topics covered include: A review of the classical linear regression model; Instrumental variables methods; Baseline models for panel data: pooled OLS, FE and RE; Advanced models with panel data, including dynamic panel data models; Overview of key models for limited dependent variables.
Learning Objectives
- Computer exercises using the statistical software package “Stata” are an integral part of the course, which ensures that the students get hands-on experience of analyzing real world data.
Expected Learning Outcomes
- Be able to apply the methods learnt when conducting own empirical analysis
- Be familiar with key methods of (micro-)econometric research
- Be familiar with and be able to use key capabilities of the statistical package “Stata”, including its programming options (do-files)
