Course Goal / Objective
The aim of this course is to provide students with the basic concepts of econometrics and to strengthen econometric background. This course also aims to equip students with skills to carry out independent applied research and be able to apply certain econometric methods to economic problems.
Course Content
This course, which is the continuation of econometrics I and econometrics II, will focus on topics such as simultaneous equations estimation methods, dynamic models, discrete choice models, limited dependent variable models, panel data analysis, time series analysis.
Course Precondition
No prerequisites are required
