DESCRIPTION
Econometrics presents basic tools for the empirical analysis of relationships between economic variables. The course begins with the simple regression model, and continues with multiple regression, including both quantitative and qualitative regressors.
The goal of this course is for students to learn to extract information from economic data using basic regression analysis, being able to rigorously assess the advantages and limitations of this tool. Major emphasis shall be placed on understanding the intuition behind the general theoretical aspects of econometric analysis. Throughout the course numerous applications using real data and econometric software will be presented to help students learn to value the empirical applications of the tools introduced.
