Description

This course teaches advanced skills in practical econometrics. Our coverage will include the following topics: OLS, FGLS, robust standard errors, panel data, Stata programming, writing .do files, Monte Carlo experiments, bootstrapping, model selection, and exercises in data cleaning. While the course will present some theory, the emphasis in this class is on doing. A distinctive characteristic of the class is that we will illustrate key concepts using computer simulations so that students can "see" the practical consequences of the issues they are studying.
