Estimation methods in the regression model. Dynamic econometric models. Econometric systems of equations.

Aim of the course -

The students should master the most important methods of modern econometrics so that they are capable to apply them in practice. The applications in finance are preferred.

Course completion requirements -

To complete the course, it is necessary to obtain credit from the exercises and to pass the exam.

Conditions for obtaining credit:

There will be 4 homework assignments and 4 peer reviews. A total of 20 points can be earned (4 points for each assignment and 1 point for each review). To obtain credit, at least 14 points must be earned, with the following conditions met:

  • From the first two assignments and two reviews, at least 7 points must be obtained.
  • From the last two assignments and two reviews, at least 7 points must be obtained.

For each period, if a student submits both assignments and both reviews on time and their total score for that period falls within the interval [5, 7) points, it will be possible to revise and resubmit one of the items.

Due to the nature of the course assessment, repeating the credit evaluation is not possible.

Exam:

The exam requirements correspond to the course syllabus as covered in the lectures. It is necessary to know all essential definitions and theorems and basic proofs. In addition, the ability to apply the theory to concrete examples is required.

The exam may consist of both written and oral parts.

Obtaining credit is a prerequisite for taking the exam.
