Course Syllabus

Abstract

The course “Advanced Econometrics ” focuses on the estimation, inference and identification of regression models. Particular attention is paid to the econometric theory, to the application of econometrics to real-world problems, and to the interpretation of the estimation results. The course includes linear regressions, Gauss-Markov theorem, generalised least squares estimation, endogeneity, instrumental variables, maximum likelihood estimation, and a panel data introduction. The course will include the use of STATA and MS Excel. Use of R and other statistical analysis software is optional

Assessment Elements

Assessment Elements

  • non-blocking Домашнее задание
    The first homework (HW1, Module 1): the course participants propose a hypothesis and collect their own cross-sectional data for a regression model that is going to be analysed further in Module 2. • The second homework (HW2, Module 2) is based on data collected in Module 1 (and approved by a tutor!). It imposes empirical justification of the stated hypotheses on the base of the material of the topics 4-9. Students are expected to use statistical software STATA or another for data analysis.
  • non-blocking Тест
    An intermediate test (IT, Module 1) includes tests and problems on the topics 4-6.
