Objective: 

The course will enable the students to

1. To acquaint the  students with the  use  of software EViews to detect the  violation  of assumptions of the  regression model.

2.To describe the  use  of EViews for estimating models with dummy independent variables.

Applied Econometri cs Using EViews-II (Practical)

CO247. Test  the  presence of multicollinearity with  the help  of  different  tests and interpret        the  results

CO248. Test  the  presence of   heteroscedasticity   with the   help   of  different  tests and    interpret   the    results

CO249. Analyze the detection of  serial correlation with  the  help  of different     tests      and interpret the  results.

CO250. Estimate different functions      for     detecting specification     error       and interpret the results.

CO251. Apply     dummy variables     in    regression, estimate      ANOVA      and ANCOVA         models  and test   various     hypotheses and  interpret results.

CO252.Contribute effectively in  course- specific  interaction

Approach in teaching: Interactive Lectures, Discussion,   Case studies.
