The module deals with the preparation and the econometric analysis of data. Based on the skills acquired in “Introduction to Data Analysis using Stata” the students work on their own empirical projects using the statistical software package Stata. For this purpose, the students are offered assisted data work sessions on a weekly basis. The projects mainly focus on data preparation and are to be conducted in groups. For successful participation the students are required to pass two out of three presentations of their work in progress during the semester. In the end, all groups should hand in their documented data work in a term paper.
