Applied Econometrics Using EViews-I

(Practical)

Students will:

CO61: analyze the basics of EViews and estimate and interpret the results of classical linear regression model by OLS method

CO62: test structural changes in data series and interpret the results and estimate the various functional forms of regression models and interpret the results

CO63: estimate multiple regression models, test their reliability, test hypotheses and interpret the results

CO64: create a file related to different types of analysis using E Views

CO65: defend orally the findings of the analysis

CO66: contribute effectively in course-specific interaction.

Approach in teaching: Interactive Lectures, Discussion,  Case studies.

 

Learning activities for the students:

Presentations, Assignments and Group discussions.

Class activity, Assignments and Semester end examinations.
