Course Summary: 

The objective of this course is to solidify students' understanding of the material taught in TTE6307 (Statistical and Econometric Methods) and to extend students' knowledge with the presentation of new model estimation techniques not covered in TTE6307. Specifically, we will undertake detailed assessment of simultaneous equations models (seemingly unrelated regressions and three-stage least squares), generalized extreme value models (nested logit models estimated by full information maximum likelihood), mixed logit models (to account for variations in parameters across the sample population), latent-class models, models with fixed and random effects, zero-inflated count data models, and multivariate models.
