Applied Econometrics using EViews-II

(Practical)

Students will

CO151: evaluate the use of EViews/Stata software for estimating dummy variable regression models.

CO152: evaluate application of EViews/Statain distributed lag models.

CO153: analyze the estimation of models based on panel data in EViews/Stata

CO154: analyze the interpretation of models based on time series datain EViews/Stata

CO155: analyze the application of simultaneous equation modelsin EViews/Stata

CO156: contribute effectively in course-specific interaction.

Approach in teaching: Interactive Lectures, Discussion and Demonstration.
