Course Objectives/Course Description

 

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to some of the advanced econometric concepts and techniques. The course begins with an introduction to lag modelling and covers distributed as well as dynamic models. Then the students will be introduced to the world of Simultaneous Equation Models and deals in depth with the issue of simultaneity and its solutions. The students will then be introduced to the analysis of two major types of data used in econometric analysis viz. time series and panel data. The course also covers different approaches to econometric forecasting. Some of the important testing procedures such as Granger Causality, Unit root tests, Seasonality tests, Structural break test, Cointegration test and Model stability tests will be introduced to the students during this course. The modules will be delivered using econometric software applications such as EViews, Gretl or STATA.

No of Lecture Hours/Week:4
Max Marks:100
Credits:4

Course Objectives/Course Description

 

This course should be accessible to anyone with an analytical mind and familiarity with basic concepts of economics. Since several environmental problems are caused by economic activity, for instance, carbon emissions, over-harvesting of renewable resources and air and water pollution as a by-product of industrial activity, this course examines different approaches to adjusting behaviour through economic institutions such as markets and incentives as well as through regulation, etc. It also addresses the economic implications of environmental policies through practical applications of methods for valuation of environmental goods and services and quantification of environmental damages. Conversely, the impact of economic growth on the environment is also addressed under the rubric of sustainable development. Environmental problems and issues from the Indian and international context (especially global warming) are used to illustrate the concepts and methods presented in the course.

Course Objectives:

  • To introduce the students to concepts, methods and policy options in managing the environment using tools of economic analysis.
  • To enable the students to understand the economic implications of environmental policies and environmental issues
  • To understand the concepts of environmental valuation, methods and its applications,
  • To provide an understanding of sustainable development measures in tackling the environmental issues.

Learning Outcome

CO1: Explain the major concepts and theories of environmental economics

CO2: Examine the efficacy of fiscal and policy interventions in addressing environmental issues

CO3: Apply environmental valuation tools in addressing environmental problems

CO4: Demonstrate the knowledge of sustainable development measures in tackling environmental challenges

Course Objectives/Course Description

 

Course Description:

This course enables students to apply theoretical knowledge acquired in their first four semesters to practical applications.  Hence, the students are expected to complete a short internship during the summer break after the fourth semester as part of the course curriculum.   Having undergone extensive understanding/training in Economic theories, Mathematical Methods, Statistics, Econometrics and Research Methods, this course enables students to demonstrate an understanding of how to apply theoretical knowledge to practice in different organizations/institutions of their choice.  The minimum duration of the internship is stipulated as four weeks.  It is evaluated based on set criteria out of 50 marks and has a maximum of two (2) credits.

Course Objectives:

The course aims to help students to:

1.    apply theoretical knowledge to practical, real-life problems.

2.    analyse data/information through a scientific method.

3.    apply the acquired skills in practical application(s) and gain industry experience.

Learning Outcome

CO1: identify socio/economic/managerial/political issues and develop a framework to conduct enquiry.

CO2: identify sources of data and tools (Statistical/Mathematical Methods) to analyse the collected data.

CO3: utilise the theoretical knowledge acquired to solve socio/economic/ managerial/ political issues and gain industry experience.

Methodology adopted for internship
 

The students are expected to identify and communicate to the organization/ institution where they want to pursue their internship, and the same should be communicated to the Department of Economics and approved before the internship commences.  As a requirement, the students must submit a letter confirming their internship from the interning organization/ institution.  After completing the internship, the students should submit a final Internship Report, internship diary, and completion certificate for evaluation at the Department level.  Failing to submit the internship completion certificate will result in the status of the internship as "Incomplete".
