The course provides an basic knowledge of econometrics, helping students grasp the basic knowledge needed to understand, estimate, and analyze a linear regression model based on cross-sectional data.
6. Brief Description of Course Content:
The course begins with an introduction to econometrics and regression. This is followed by simple linear regression models and multiple linear regression with cross-sectional data, the OLS method and properties of OLS estimation, model inference and testing. The issue of functional form and data extension is also considered to ensure the reliable regression results are obtained.
