Economic statistics is a field that attempts to clarify the mechanism of economic activity through the analysis of economic data that represents the results of economic activity. This course is intended for those who have credits for "Introduction to Economic Data Analysis" and "Economic Statistics I". This course consists of two parts. One is the contents about how to create economic statistics. The other is the contents about the methods of analyzing economic data. Economic data is often represented in the form of quantitative data. And, methods of analyzing quantitative data are based on statistics. Therefore, this course will take up basic parts of statistics.
The goal for those who register this course is two points. One is to master basic contents about how to create economic statistics. The other is to master the basic contents of statistics, which is the basis of quantitative data analysis methods.
Those who register this course are graded by homework and final exam. The evaluation ratio is planned to be 30% for homework and 70% for the final exam. Details of grading policy will be announced in the guidance.
