Technological advances are creating new opportunities and challenges in the observation of economic behavior and changing the scope of empirical economics. This course exposes students to a variety of approaches to “large n” and “large p” problems and familiarizes students with recent research that has used big data to push the cutting-edge of applied microeconomics and finance. Through a combination of assignments (labs) and work on an independent project, students acquire the statistical and computational tools needed for making use of big data in empirical research.
