ESTIMATE - Early Summer Tutorial in Modern Applied Tools of Econometrics
 
Presented by the Department of Economics at Michigan State University
 
Instructors: 
 -Jeffrey Wooldridge ( http://www.econ.msu.edu/faculty/wooldridge/index.php)
- Timothy Vogelsang ( http://www.econ.msu.edu/faculty/vogelsang/index.php) 
 
May 31 - June 2, 2013
 
OBJECTIVES:  This is a short course in econometrics aimed at applied researchers wanting to use state-of-the-art econometrics in their empirical research.  The presentation will focus on understanding when various models and estimation methods are appropriate as well as how to conduct proper inference in a variety of settings.  The methods will be illustrated using several empirical examples using the econometrics package Stata.  It will be assumed that participants in ÊSTIMATE have an econometrics background comparable to a first-year PhD econometrics sequence.
