Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The topics/themes of Economic Data Analysis are set by the teacher during lectures. The lecturing in practical classes involves the resolution of exercises, the discussion of seminal articles, the collection of data, and the econometric handling of the models. The grading results from the weighting of three moments of learning as follows: (1) development, writing, presentation and discussion of empirical work 40%; and (2) final examinations 60%.
