Econometrics 1
Undergraduate course, WU Vienna, Department of Economics, 2023
This introductory undergraduate course in econometrics provides students with the fundamental tools for empirical economic analysis. The course covers the classical linear regression model, including simple and multiple regression, interpretation of coefficients, goodness-of-fit measures, and statistical inference. Students learn to estimate and interpret economic relationships, test hypotheses, and understand the assumptions underlying econometric models. Practical applications focus on real-world economic problems using statistical software, enabling students to conduct their own empirical research. The course emphasizes both theoretical foundations and hands-on data analysis skills essential for applied economics. Read more
International Macroeconomics
Undergraduate course, WU Vienna, Department of Economics, 2023
This undergraduate course examines macroeconomic theory and policy in an international context. Students explore key topics including balance of payments, exchange rate determination, international capital flows, and monetary and fiscal policy in closed and open economies. The course covers foundational models such as the IS-LM model, the Mundell-Fleming framework, purchasing power parity, and interest rate parity conditions. Contemporary issues such as currency crises, international financial integration, global imbalances, and the role of international institutions (IMF, World Bank) are analyzed through both theoretical and empirical lenses. Students develop a theoretical understanding of how economies interact in the global system and how international linkages affect domestic macroeconomic outcomes and policy effectiveness. Read more
Econometrics 3
Undergraduate course, WU Vienna, Department of Economics, 2024
This advanced undergraduate econometrics course builds upon foundational knowledge to cover sophisticated econometric techniques for empirical research. Topics include uni- and multivariate time series analysis, panel data methods, instrumental variables estimation, limited dependent variable models, and generalized method of moments. Students explore econometric challenges such as endogeneity, heteroskedasticity, autocorrelation, and model specification issues. The course emphasizes modern econometric approaches used in applied economic research, with particular attention to causal inference and policy evaluation. Students engage with current empirical studies and develop the skills to critically evaluate and conduct advanced econometric analyses using software such as R, Matlab or Python. Read more
Bridging Course in Econometrics
Graduate course, WU Vienna, Department of Economics, 2025
This graduate-level bridging course provides essential econometric foundations for incoming master’s students. The course covers fundamental statistical concepts, probability theory, and introductory econometric methods necessary for advanced graduate coursework. Topics include probability theory, asymptotic theory, parameter estimation and standard econometric models such as the linear model, binary choice, multinomial, etc. Read more
