    Assessment and permitted materials

    The course assessment will involve group problem sets, where you will collaboratively solve analytical exercises and implement empirical solutions in R. In addition, there will be short quizzes to be solved individually during class. Attendance and active participation will also contribute to your final grade.

      Assessment and permitted materials

      The course assessment will involve group problem sets, where you will collaboratively solve analytical exercises and implement empirical solutions in R. In addition, there will be short quizzes to be solved individually during class. Attendance and active participation will also contribute to your final grade.

      Information

      Aims, contents and method of the course

      In this course unit, we will apply and practice the concepts taught in the 040327 KU Introductory Econometrics (MA). Our primary focus will be on practical application through empirical exercises using the R software (if you are not familiar with the software, please make sure to visit the R tutorial). Additionally, we will review key derivations and proofs on the board to improve your understanding of the material. The course will be held on-site, there is no online option.

      Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

      To successfully complete the course, students must earn at least 50% of the total available points. The grading components are as follows:
      - Problem Sets: 45 points
      - Quizzes: 45 points
      - Attendance and Participation: 10 points

      There will be several opportunities to collect bonus points through the problem sets.

      -----

      The final grade will be calculated based on the total points (P) earned:

      Sehr Gut (1): P > 90
      Gut (2): 75 < P ≤ 90
      Befriedigend (3): 62.5 < P ≤ 75
      Genügend (4): 50 < P ≤ 62.5
      Nicht Genügend (5): P < 50

      Examination topics

      All material covered in this course is relevant for the assessments. Course materials, including solutions to problem sets after submission, will be available on Moodle. The content closely follows the material from the parallel lecture (040327 KU Introductory Econometrics).
