In this subject you will develop hands on experience with real-world data to assist in developing solutions to contemporary issues in society. You will learn to connect the theoretical aspects of economics to the empirical techniques for analysing and interpreting data, allowing you to develop and critically evaluate economic policies.

Analyse the role of data analysis in effective economic decision-making and its relationship to economic theory.
Use data analysis tools and empirical techniques to summarise important information and provide inferential statistics for economic policy analysis.
