Directed by Prof. Jeffrey Wooldrige, the online course on Panel data for banking sector analysts provides a comprehensive introduction with a focus on micro-econometric applications featuring large cross-sectional datasets. It also explores advanced techniques and extensions relevant to practitioners and researchers.
Key topics include common estimators—random effects, fixed effects, and first differencing—with an emphasis on robust inference and specification testing. The course further delves into advanced methods, such as handling heterogeneous slopes and trends, instrumental variables techniques, and the estimation of dynamic models. Fixed effects estimation and inference for datasets with a large number of time periods, applicable to more aggregated data, are also explored.
Participants will learn how to address challenges associated with unbalanced panels and test for non-random sample selection. Time permitting, the course will introduce nonlinear models for binary and nonnegative outcomes.
What makes this course unique?
- Live Q&A sessions - get answers directly from the faculty.
- Interactive lab sessions - apply concepts in real time
- Small group setting - engage in meaningful discussions and peer learning.
