Applied Econometrics using EViews-I

(Practical)

Students will

CO103: examine the basics of EViews/ Stata software to estimate and interpret simple regression and examine the multiple regression models using EViews/ Stata software.

CO104:analyze different methods of detecting the problem of heteroscedasticity and autocorrelation and specification error in data using EViews/Stata

CO105: examine different methods of detecting the problem of multicollinearity in EViews/Stata software.

CO106: create a document related to different types of analysis using EViews/Stata software.

CO107: defend orally the findings of the analysis using EViews/Stata software.

CO108: contribute effectively in course-specific interaction.

 

Approach in teaching: Interactive Lectures, Discussion and Demonstration.
