Summary
1 Introduction to econometrics (subject of econometrics, methodology of econometrics)
2. Simple linear regression function (the nature of regression analysis, the concept of population and sample regression function (deterministic and stochastic version), the method of ordinary least squares, coefficient of determination)
3. Statistical verification (testing of regression coefficients, the overall of sample regression model)
4. Autocorrelation (the nature, the consequences of autocorrelation, detection, removing).
5. Heteroscedasticity (the nature, its consequences, detection, removing, WOLS)
7. Multicollinearity (the nature, its consequences, detection, removing).
8. Model specification (model selection criteria, types of specification errors, consequences, tests)
9. Prediction (ex-post and ex-ante, mean and individual prediction, point and interval prediction).
10. Functional form of regression models (exponential regression model, semi log models and reciprocal models).
11. Dummy variable regression models.

Way of continuous check of knowledge in the course of semester
Elaboration of a semester project on econometric modeling on a selected topic by the student.
The oral exam includes the defense of the semester project and 2 questions verifying knowledge of econometrics.
E-learning
Presentations for individual lectures in LMS Moodle.
Supporting materials for exercises - presentations, examples, results.
Inserting a semester project.
Other requirements
Preparation of a semester project according to the required structure, submission in the LMS by the end of January and obtaining more than half the number of points (30-50 pages).
