Doing Applied Economics Research: Practical Skills

Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.

This course provides exposure to a wide variety of basic skills necessary for conducting high-quality research in applied economics. This includes defining a research question, primary and secondary data collection, principles of academic writing and presentation, research ethics, basic coding and data management, as well as project management.

Some of the topics (e.g., coding) are only covered at an overview level with the expectation that those requiring a deeper knowledge will take further coursework.
