The aim of the course:
This is continuation of Applied Econometrics-I course and objectives of the course are the same as objectives of the Applied Econometrics-I.
 
Learning OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
LO - 1 : learn what are the econometrics tools1,2,3,4,5,6,71,3,4
LO - 2 : learn how to do econometric tools use1,2,3,4,5,6,71,3,4
LO - 3 : learn how to do econometric tools apply to economic problems1,2,3,4,5,6,71,3,4
LO - 4 : learn how to do economic problems analysis by using econometric tools1,2,3,4,5,6,71,3,4
LO - 5 : learn how to find as solution find out to economic problems by using econometric tools1,2,3,4,5,6,71,3,4
