ECN-6991 Policy Impact Analysis

Policy impact analysis is used to determine which policies, interventions and programmes work, for whom, and in what circumstances. This course provides practical guidelines for designing and implementing various types of experimental and non-experimental techniques. We discuss how to select the appropriate technique for each context. This course generally takes an applied, non-technical approach. Participants require a working knowledge of basic statistics, in particular key concepts such as regression analysis. Students who have successfully completed ECN-7291 cannot register for this course.
