Course Catalog Description:
Bivariate/multivariate models used in regression analysis, including assumptions behind them/problems that arise when assumptions are not met. Course covers similar topics as PA 5032 but uses more mathematical notation/delves deeper into theory/application of methods. prereq: [5031 or equiv} or instr consent
Class Notes:

Class Description:
This course is targeted towards students who intend on taking a quantitative approach to policy analysis during graduate school and in their future career. The course will cover the theory behind basic regression models, and illustrate their application in analyzing programs and policies. In order to delve deeply into the assumptions behind such models as well as to understand specific issues that can arise when these assumptions are not met, the course material will use more advanced mathematical notation and concepts, but no calculus is required. Ideally, students entering this course will have a background in economics and/or mathematics/statistics from their undergraduate education. The approach taken to understanding regression analysis in this class will prepare students for more advanced econometrics courses, either offered at the Humphrey school or at other departments in the University.

The syllabus below is from Spring 2016, but Spring 2017's course will be virtually identical. Please see the syllabus for grading and exam information. Contact the instructor with any questions.
Learning Objectives:
This course will cover bivariate and multivariate regression models, including the assumptions behind them and the problems that arise when these assumptions are not met. It covers the same topics as PA5032 (Regression Analysis) but in more depth and using more mathematical notation. Students will also become familiar with the Stata statistical package.

Class Format:
I teach my lectures from PDF slides. I will try my best to post the day's slides to Moodle by midnight on the day before class. You are welcome to print out the slides and bring them to class to facilitate note-taking.
