Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria Classes are theoretical exposition and use of empirical studies with econometric application with panel data. In the application of econometric models and techniques, there is the use of operationalization routines of the STATA software. As evaluation criteria, students who attend classes, in the Teaching-Learning component, carry out a work in class, with monitoring by the Professor in the evolution of application of knowledge and will have to deliver the final report on the 28th of January, will have a weight of 100%. There will be an Exam with a weight of 100% for students who are admitted either during the Normal or the Appeal period.
