授業の内容や構成
Course Content / Plan | | The seminar schedule is decided at the start of each semester. Each seminar session usually has two parts: a paper discussion section and a research progress presentation.
Our research agenda covers a variety of topics such as:
(1) Regional inequality and development beyond GDP
(2) Quantitative geography of development
(3) Economic and social convergence
(4) Regional labor market outcomes and macroeconomic shocks
(5) Economic growth and structural change
We also use a variety of research methods such as:
(1) Spatial econometrics
(2) Panel data econometrics
(3) Time series econometrics
(4) Nonparametric econometrics
(5) Bayesian econometrics
(6) Machine learning methods |
