Micro-econometrics

The course endows the students with the tools to analyze microeconomic data. The emphasis is placed on the econometric models as well as on their use for applications in economics, finance and banking. Lab sessions are used to familiarize the students with the mostly used statistical/econometric packages. While no prior knowledge of econometrics is required, the course assumes that students are acquainted with the most basic notions of statistics.
