Applied Econometrics Textbook
- Published by Wiley in January 2012 and entitled Fundamentals of Applied Econometrics
- The first half of this book is very suitable as a textbook for an undergraduate
econometrics course. Its most notable features are a completely integrated statistics review and a substantial number
of "Active Learning Excercises" that get students working with actual data in highly-directed 'mini-projects.'
The second half of the book covers more advanced topics -- still with essentially no use of linear algebra -- and would be suitable for a Master's Degree level course or as an ancillary
textbook in a Doctoral level course.
- The book's website at Wiley Enter "Fundamentals of Applied Econometrics" in the search box. The Active Learning Exercises can be accessed here
-- including set-ups, data and (for instructor
log-ins) answer keys.
- Errata corrections (Scans of hand-corrected pages.)
