S314 Computational Econometrics Using Stata
Details
Latest Information | In this section you will always find the latest information regarding the lecture formalities (information regarding online/presence formats, etc.). UPDATE REGARDING THE COURSE FORMAT: The course will be exclusively online. As before, the lecture videos will be provided asynchronously via Ilias. Regarding the exercise classes, there will be a synchronous meeting via Zoom in which we will discuss the exercise sheets and particular problems you had with the respective exercise sheets. These sessions are planned to be of a "Ask me Anything" type, so I definitely recommend to work on the exercises before you join the session (but you will in any case benefit from these sessions). We will talk about these sessions in the kick-off session on November 5th, 2020.
UPDATE REGARDING THE NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS Since we're no longer bound by the available space in the PC lab, we are now able to open this course for a broader audience. The maximum number of participants is now 25-30 participants. You still need to apply first (see section below).
