This page is curated for my friends, classmates, and juniors. I am not the author of all of the stuff posted here; rather, it is a selection I made from the internet.
It is one of the most extensive compilations I have found on RA resources in economics for India. Aditya Adar compiled it. It offers information on various aspects of being an RA, including roles and responsibilities, skills required, career prospects, and resources for further learning. Additionally, it guides how to effectively work with economists, manage time, and communicate professionally. The page aims to support RAs in enhancing their skills and navigating their roles effectively within the field of economics in India.
The page introduces readers to the concept of causal inference, which aids social scientists in understanding cause-and-effect relationships in complex scenarios. It highlights the importance of causal inference in various contexts, such as assessing the impact of minimum wage increases on employment and the effects of early childhood education on later incarceration rates. Scott Cunningham provides guidance on employing modeling techniques and coding instructions in R and Stata programming languages to derive meaningful conclusions about causation in social science research.

This is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the development and documentation of open-source computational tools for economics, econometrics, and decision-making. It is perfect to start learning quantitative methods.
Lecture Notes on Advanced Methods for Data Analysis by Ryan Tibshirani.
This page provides a coding guide for empirical economics research, focusing on using Stata. It discusses the complexity of modern research, the importance of code documentation, and the American Economic Association’s new data and code availability policy. The guide then delves into setting up a robust coding environment using tools like Dropbox, Stata Profile, and R Profile. It also discusses using version control systems and organizing the project with a clear folder structure. The guide is accompanied by an AEA-compliant sample replication package.
This site provides some resources for economics graduate students. If you have useful resources that you would like to be added to this page, please reach out to the creators of this page (Chris Roth or David Schindler)
The website delves into critical topics such as multivariate calculus, concavity and convexity, optimization theory, differential equations, and difference equations. It's not just about abstract theories; this tutorial prioritizes practical techniques you can apply. The approach revolves around "accessible precision," ensuring that you grasp the techniques while understanding the specific conditions under which they are applicable.
The page guides students to undertake a PhD in Economics curated by the Royal Economics Society.
Kim Border was a professor in Caltech's Humanities & Social Sciences division for 41 years (1979–2020). This is a repository of his few of any works and are kept to help the future generation of students.
Econschool is an educational initiative that provides resources and guidance to students who aspire to study or pursue Economics at an advanced level. Our mission is to equip students with the tools and knowledge they need to become independent problem solvers in Economics, which they can use in business, jobs, or to pursue research in economics and related fields.
This webpage outlines research opportunities in Economics and Mathematical Economic Analysis (ECON and MTEC) for undergraduates. It mentions research courses, individual faculty research assistant positions, and student research awards. Four specific research courses are highlighted, and the page provides information on how to apply for research assistant positions. Four student research awards are detailed, along with the criteria for each. The page concludes with resources for research and writing, and links to external sources of economic data.
The Econometrics Academy is a free online educational platform and non-profit organization. Its mission is to offer free education on econometrics to anyone worldwide.
The Society for Economics Research in India (SERI) promotes research collaboration, intellectual exchange and critique among economists in India.
This 10-week course was taught in the winter quarter of 2021 as Education 265: Applied Regression Analysis for Education and Social Scientific Research. Instructors: Greg Duncan and Paul Yoo emails: gduncan@uci.edu; pyyoo@uci.edu
Shanjun Li is a Professor of Applied Economics and Policy and holds the Kenneth L. Robinson Chair in the Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management at Cornell University. His research areas include environmental and energy economics, urban and transportation economics, empirical industrial organization, and the Chinese economy. His recent research examines pressing sustainability issues in China and their global implications to inform evidence-based policymaking.
