In ECON 3338: Econometrics I, students learn to formulate and estimate both simple and multiple linear regression models using Ordinary Least Squares (OLS). They explore hypothesis testing for economic questions, interpret parameter estimates, and understand statistical properties of these estimates. The course covers issues like multicollinearity, omitted variables, heteroskedasticity, and autocorrelation, and teaches methods for diagnosing and correcting these issues. Students also apply efficient estimation techniques for models with heteroskedastic innovations and use matrix algebra to derive and analyze OLS estimator formulas.

Key Areas of Focus:

Understand and apply simple regression analysis with one explanatory variable.
Conduct multiple regression analysis with several explanatory variables.
Estimate and specify econometric models correctly.
Perform hypothesis testing in both simple and multiple regressions.
Analyze partial regression and its applications.
Recognize and apply asymptotic properties of Ordinary Least Squares (OLS).
Identify and use functional forms, dummy variables, and check for parameter stability.
Detect and address heteroskedasticity in regression analysis.

Prerequisites include MATH 1000 (or equivalent) and MATH 2060/ STAT 2060, with a minimum grade of C.
