Policy Evaluation and Causal Inference

Code: ECON833

Credits: 20

Semester: Semester 2

This module provides students with the key econometric techniques necessary to evaluate the causal impact of public policies and economic interventions. Emphasising empirical research, students will work with real-world datasets and apply modern econometric methods to establish causal relationships, moving beyond simple correlations. Through hands-on workshops and coding-based exercises, students will gain practical experience in implementing policy evaluation techniques using statistical software. The module fosters analytical thinking and problem-solving skills, preparing students for more advanced applications of causal inference in policy analysis, economic consulting, and research.
