In this course, you will learn:
- How to use the econometrics "Furious Five": random assignment, regression, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity designs, and differences-in-differences procedures.
- Do you think econometrics is boring? So it was once, but it will no longer exist! We avoid theoretical monotony by asking actual empirical questions that bring the figures to life.
