This is Robert's teaching page. I have retired from active
service on September 30, 2022. My status as a Professorial
Fellow implies that my teaching is now welcome but not mandatory. I
am planning to offer courses from time to time. I was teaching in the summer
semesters 2023 and 2024, it was fun, so I will be doing it again in spring
2025. Last semester, I have been teaching a course in Forecasting and Time
Series at the Modul University.
This page serves as a reference page. It should
contain course descriptions for all lecture courses at the University of
Vienna, some links to older material, and announcements
that serve as a means of communicating short-run changes.

the following main building blocks: Croissant, Y., and Millo, G.: Panel Data
Econometrics with R Assessment is based on two
components: two written tests (30% each) and an empirical project (40 %). The
empirical project consists of writing a short paper, presenting empirical
results and discussing the projects of fellow students. Dropping the course
without a grade is possible on request (please contact me) before the first
test. Passing the course requires both at least 50% of the maximum achievable
points and attendance at the first written test. |
