Welcome! Do you want to know how to analyze and resolve business and economic questions with data analysis tools? Then Erasmus University Rotterdam Econometrics is the right course for you, as you learn to translate data into models to make forecasts and support decision-making.
* That I learn? When you know econometrics, you can translate data into models to make forecasts and support decision making in a wide variety of fields, from macroeconomics to finance to marketing.
Our course begins with introductory lectures on simple and multiple regression, followed by topics of special interest covering model specification, endogenous variables, binary choice data, and time series data.
Learn these key topics in econometrics by watching the videos with video quizzes and doing post-video training exercises.
* Do I need prior knowledge? The course is suitable for students (advanced undergraduates) in economics, finance, business, engineering, and data analysis, as well as those working in these fields.
The course requires some basic concepts of matrices, probability, and statistics, which are reviewed in the Building Blocks module.
If you are looking for a MOOC on econometrics of a more introductory nature that needs less math background, you may be interested in the Coursera course "Nice Econometrics" which is also from Erasmus University Rotterdam.
* What literature can I consult to support my studies? You can follow the MOOC without studying additional sources.
Further reading of the topics discussed (including the Building Blocks) is provided in the textbook we wrote and on which the MOOC is based: Econometric Methods with Applications in Business and Economics, Oxford University Press.
The connection between MOOC modules and book chapters is shown in the Course Guide - More information - How can I continue my studies? * Will there be active teaching assistants to guide me through the course? Staff and Ph.D. students from our Econometric Institute will provide guidance in January and February of each year.
In other periods, we only provide elementary guidance.
We always encourage you to connect with other students in this course to discuss topics and exercises.
* How will I get a certificate? To obtain the certificate for this course, you are required to complete six practice exercises (one per module) and a case project.
In addition, he performs peer review activities on the work of three of his fellow learners of this MOOC.
You get the certificate if you pass all seven tasks.
