Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Aim of the course:
i. Providing a sound background econometric models for qualitative dependent variables, models for limited dependent variables, and panel data
ii. Implementing econometric theory using real data
iii. Practicing programing in STATA

The following topics are targeted in particular:

1. A Review of Linear Regression
2. Generalizations of the Linear Model
3. Maximum Likelihood
4. Instrumental Variable Estimation
5. Models for Qualitative Dependent Variables
6. Models for Limited Dependent Variables
7. Panel Data

Assessment and permitted materials

Assessment is based on two written tests and on a small independent empirical econometric project. Each of the tests carries a weight of 35 % for the final grade, while the project carries 30 %. A positive grade requires 50 % of the maximum achievable score and attendance at the midterm test.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Basic knowledge in linear regression, linear algebra and probability theory.

Examination topics

All material covered in class and in the tutorials.
