Målbeskrivelse | |||||||||||||||||
The main objective of the course is to provide an introduction to the more advanced themes in econometric modeling with an emphasis on application of estimation techniques and statistical testing. After completing the course it is expected that the student is able to: Knowledge: - Reflect about econometric problems and solutions in relation to endogenous regressors. - Reflect about the appropriate choice of estimator given certain types of data such as time series data, panel data, and data with a binary dependent variable. Skills: - Analyse consistency and asymptotic normality of estimators in certain econometric models. Competences: - Formulate and estimate linear econometric models with endogenous regressors. - Formulate and estimate linear econometric models for panel data. - Formulate and estimate econometric models for binary dependent variables. - Interpret outcomes of econometric analyses and draw appropriate conclusions. - Discuss the results of econometric analyses based on model assumptions and limitations. | |||||||||||||||||
