Class Objectives /Class Outline |
To have opportunities of discussions to develop master and PhD research projects in applied econometric studies such as policy impact evaluations, the lecture is organized as follows. In each class, students will present their own research projects or any related researches in the literature. Then discussions follows with registered students of this class and various professors. The course requires basic understanding of the causal inference, and for Smart Society school students, Arts and Science of Evidence-Based Decision Making course is a prerequisite. |
