You'll cover basic and advanced topics in econometrics including ARCH and GARCH models, co-integration and dealing with high frequency data.
You will also have the opportunity to work with a number of different estimation techniques, including OLS, Maximum Likelihood and GMM.
You'll work extensively with the Matlab programming language in the core modules alongside other languages such as VBA, Python or C as optional modules.
