The aim of this course is to provide participants with a deeper understanding of microeconometric estimation techniques. We will use the topic “Policy Evaluation” to illustrate and discuss several methods under various types of assumptions.
Topics:
- Causality and the Potential Outcome Framework
- Experiments
- Unconfoundedness
- Matching
- Difference-in-Differences
- Instrumental Variables
- Regression-Discontinuity Design
The lecture will be complemented by a practical computer session “Public Policy Evaluation (2)” where the estimators will be implemented using STATA.
