  • Course Description
    This is the first graduate-level Econometrics course for Master/Ph.D. students of Economics and other Business majors.
  • Course Objective
    The first goal of this course is to deepen our knowledge of the theoretical properties of widely used econometric estimation methods, including the least square and the maximum likelihood. We start this course with the linear regression models and then move to more general nonlinear models. The second goal is to enhance students’ programming skills. There are problem sets for students to use STATA and R (or MATLAB, Python) to implement empirical and simulation exercises.
