    4 hours Econometrics is the use of statistical methods in economic research. This is an applied, rather than a theoretical, course, and involves the use of tools such as VisualBasic within Excel (as a teaching method; Excel is not a statistics package). However, although the course requires a background in both economics and mathematics (see prerequisites ) it also places econometrics in a wider context, studying where it is, and where it is not, appropriate as a research tool. Thus, the course provides an introduction to economic research methods in general, and students gain practice in the writing of research papers. Prerequisites: ECON 247 and ECON 248, any statistics course, any Mathematics course numbered 151 or higher. Must earn a grade of B or above in all prerequisite courses. (HBSSM, Quant, W)
