This class is the conclusion of a three-course econometrics sequence for first-year doctoral students. In this course, students are required to write an applied paper using data they collect. Below, there is a little help for finding data sources, different ways to get the data in a workable Stata format, and a few other suggestions that may come in handy.

DO files we will use:

Reading in Data - get it into Stata from various formats and check coding issues
Append and Merge - piece together multiple data sets
Running the Models - put theory into practice and then test the results
Exporting the Results - tricks to get your output into Excel or LaTex
