Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Aims, content, and methods: Digital services permeate almost every aspect of life, reshaping business transactions and social interactions alike. In this course, we investigate recent advances in data-driven approaches to decision making relevant to economics and management. The aim of this course is to introduce students to recent research trends and to learn and discuss critically how these tools can used for decision making in organizations.The course consists of two parts. In part 1, we review theoretical concepts related to causal inference through randomized experiments as well as concepts of prediction. In part 2, we study how these concepts can be applied to a number of relevant questions in economics and management. The fields from which applications are selected include behavioral economics, game theory, organizational behavior and industrial organization.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
Assessment: The assessment is based on presentations (of R exercises and research papers), and a paper ('Seminararbeit').
Note that it is imperative to participate in the first session. Students who cannot (for a good reason) participate in the first session should send me an e-mail one week before the first session.
