Semester: Spring/Fall

Offered: Since 2021

This undergraduate course introduces the core concepts and tools of econometrics, with an emphasis on applying statistical methods to answer empirical economic questions. The course covers linear regression, hypothesis testing, fixed effects, instrumental variables, and common threats to internal validity. Students learn how to interpret empirical results, evaluate empirical research, and apply econometric methods to real-world data, with a strong focus on intuition and practical relevance rather than mathematical formalism.
