The goal of this course is to enable students to conduct empirical studies using panel data. Students will learn to use the statistical software package Stata in order to import, manipulate and analyze data. The course focuses on panel data analysis of microdata, with applications in labor economics. Students will work with the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) - the largest panel data set of German households available and one of the longest-running panel data sets in the world.

The course will be held online until further notice. All the course material - including the lecture videos - will be provided on ILIAS. Since sessions in the PC Lab are currently not possible, participants will receive temporary Stata licenses for the use of their personal computers.

You have to register in order to attend this course. Please note that the size of the class is limited.
