SMJ09058 Econometrics

Business operates within the economy and many of the prospects and problems faced by a business are influenced or determined by the economy. Consequently, many business leaders emphasise the need for business managers to understand the economy and its impact on business. The subjects in this sub-major provide students with the professional skills, knowledge and understanding of the economic environment within which business operates.

It is recommended that 23508 Quantitative Methods in Economics and Business be completed before 23509 Empirical Methods for Policy Evaluation and 23507 Time Series Econometrics.
