This unit introduces econometrics: the application of economic theory and statistical methods to quantify economic phenomena and relationships using observational economic data. The unit starts with a review of probability and statistics, followed by an in-depth analysis of classical linear regression. Advanced topics including nonlinear models, dummy variables, model specification, heteroskedasticity, measurement errors, and time series are discussed in the second half of the unit. The aim is to develop a deep understanding of the statistical properties of modern econometrics techniques, and to provide the practical skills, such as using statistical software, to fit models to data.

Introduction and Random Variables
Sampling, Estimation and Statistical Inference
Simple Regression Analysis
Properties of Regression Coefficients and Hypothesis Testing
Multiple Regression Analysis
Nonlinear Models and Transformations of Variables
