This course covers the basics for doing sound empirical work at the post-graduate level, including Labour and Public Economics, Development and Experiments, Industrial Organization and Trade. It is particularly aimed at students who plan on doing applied work for their thesis. The identification issue of causal relationship when analyzing experimental and non-experimental data represents the unifying topic of the course. Much in the spirit of "Correlation is not equal to causation!"
