Previous Semesters
Winter semester 2023/24
Lecture „Semiparametric Methods in Econometrics and Applications“, 5 ECTS, for Master Students
This course presents nonparametric and semiparametric regression techniques which are part of the tool set of modern microeconometric methods and applications. The course covers saturated OLS regression, kernel density estimation, nonparametric regression, partially linear models, semiparametric selection models, inverse probability weighting, penalized regression models as well as parametric and nonparametric quantile regression as basic tools. These methods are used for cross-section data and longitudinal data. Students will familiarize themselves with applying the methods based on selected applications in economic research papers.

Seminar „Current topics in Labor Market Policy“, 5 ECTS, for Bachelor students
Labor economics is a field with high policy relevance. The seminar on current topics in labor market policy focuses on current developments in the labor market and policy responses. At the beginning of the semester there will be an introduction into the theoretical basis and the policy context of the topics covered in the seminar.
