Course overview

This is a capstone course that focuses on applying economic modelling and analytical techniques acquired during the BEc(Adv) degree to important contemporary economic questions. By the end of the course, the students will have learned how advanced economic research is employing economic theory and analytical tools to investigate real-world issues. Specifically, the course will aim to make connections between economic theory and a variety of econometric methods and offer students both a clear understanding and some hands-on experience in empirical identification of causal linkages

Course learning outcomes

  • Explain how to use economic data to discern across competing economic mechanisms within available economic theories,
  • Explain how economic theory can be used to interpret available economic data, and
  • Apply what has been learned during the first two years of their B.Ec. (Advanced) studies to build and present a research project.
