15 hours of lectures and 10 hours of classes in the MT. 15 hours of lectures and 10 hours of classes in the LT. This course is delivered through a combination of classes and lectures totalling a minimum of 50 hours across Michaelmas Term and Lent Term. This year, some or all of this teaching will be delivered through a combination of virtual classes, live streamed (recorded) lectures, and some flipped content delivered as short online videos.
Michaelmas term: Required weekly ?referee reports? (3-4 pages) on assigned journal articles, with two graded. Feedback to be provided by the class teacher. Lent term:? Two required problem sets, usually to include econometric questions and applications. Feedback to be provided by the class teacher.
A detailed reading list will be provided at the beginning of each term of the course. In parts of the Michaelmas we will use sections from the textbook "Mostly Harmless Econometrics" by Angrist and Pischke. There is no single text for the Lent term, but useful books include ?A Guide to Modern Econometrics? by Marno Verbeek, ?Introduction to Econometrics? By Stock and Watson (somewhat less advanced than the lectures) and ?Econometric Analyses of Cross Section and Panel Data? by Wooldridge (somewhat more advanced than the lectures).
