Course Objective
In this course, students learn• how to apply basic techniques from Econometrics, Operations Research
and Mathematical Economics to problems taken from real life. For this,
they first have to model the problem in mathematical terms, and
afterwards decide what techniques are relevant for the specific problem.
• how to work efficiently in a randomly assigned group.
• to communicate results in a scientific presentation.
• how to use scientific language to write a report.
• to give constructive feedback to peers.
Course Content
In this course, students work in groups on a practical case involvingEconometrics, Mathematical Economics and Operations Research. The first
week is intended to introduce the projects, the required literature and
the data. In weeks 2 and 3, there will be meetings to report the
progress and to ask questions. The presentations and hand-in of the
final reports will take place in week 4.
