Economics Resources &
Materials
Intro
This webpage includes links to learning materials and various resources
available on the web for Economists at all levels from undergraduates in the 2nd
and 3rd years to postgraduate students, and probably some PhD students.
It also contain my own interpretative materials, since I regard some topics
ill-explained and incredibly over-complicated for no reason, I aim by sharing
these files to provide some insights to advanced students in Econometrics, the
approach focus on emphasising Empirical skills and techniques to be used on real
life data, (with illustrative examples), instead of providing materials on OLS
regression for example! a topic found easily and freely on the web (search in Goggle/
Yahoo) the materials below are especially useful to those
interested in Macroeconometrics and more generally in Applied Econometrics, for
advanced undergraduates and more suitable for
postgraduates and probably PhD researchers in some cases, if you are already a
Dr or Prof then impressing you is to some extent doubtful.
ready-to-use spreadsheets, and graphical illustration of basic theoretical
concepts from my teaching experience are additional goodies provided on this
page (though less ambitious than other materials), software advice and generic programmes
suited to typically confusing empirical applications (e.g.: Cointegration) are probably what is the best
of what this website is offering, and finally I provide
brief text book and software reviews and recommended readings of Books and
influential papers in leading journals on specific topics, also included other
informative WebPages of leading academics, professional Economists, and similar
pages to this one (well, maybe better).
