This course is designed to introduce students to econometric techniques and their applications in economic analysis and decision-making.

Estimation and inference procedures are formally analyzed for simple econometric models and illustrated by empirical case studies using real-life data. The course covers linear regression models, simultaneous-equations models, discrete choice models and univariate time series models. Estimation and Inference are conducted using least squares and likelihood based techniques. Students are required to perform several econometric analyses of their own.
