Syllabus
  • Lectures: 1. Statistics, economics, econometrics, economic statistics: basic concepts, stages of statistical research, distribution table frequencies, statistical graphs. 2. Basic statistical characteristics: interpretation of the arithmetic mean and median, variance and standard deviations, variational coefficient, percentiles, characteristics for aggregated data, 8 simple and complex indexes for tracking national economy, industry and companies. 3. Gaussian curve - its explanation and application: random variable a its probability distribution, mean and random variance quantities. 4. Null hypotheses - explanation and application: most often used test criteria, test significance level, critical test value. 5. Two-sample tests: test of differences between two groups or pairs. 6. PivotTable tests: testing the independence between monitored characters in the PivotTable. 7. Simple linear regression: regression line, rules for so-called BLUE estimate, correlation coefficient. 8. Interpretation of coefficients in regression model: logarithmic transformations, tests in regression analysis. 9. Multidimensional regression: rules for so-called BLUE estimation, regression coefficients and their interpretation, coefficient of determination, tests on the significance of the model. 10. Time series: characteristics of time series, rules for BLUE estimate. 11. Time series: simple BLUE regression models. 12. Panel data: characteristics of panel data estimation, fixed effects and a random time series effect. 13. New trends and methods in econometrics: business economics, finance, micro-economics and macro-economics. Seminars: 1. Creating histograms and graphs to display different types of data. 2. Interpretation of arithmetic mean, median, variance a standard deviations, coefficient of variation, percentile. 3. Creation and interpretation of simple and complex indices for monitoring of the national economy, industry and companies. 4. Application of Gaussian curve and testing of null hypotheses o normalcy. 5. Parametric tests of difference between two groups or pairs. 6. Nonparametric tests of difference between two groups or pairs. 7. Testing the independence between the observed characters in contingency table. 8. Interpretation of coefficients in a simple regression model, diagnostics of estimation and its interpretation. 9. Interpretation, coefficients in multiple regression model, diagnostics of estimation and its interpretation. 10. Creation of questionnaires for established hypotheses: examples of good practice. 11. Application of simple regression models for time series, diagnostics of estimation and its interpretation. 12. Simple estimation of panel data using fixed effects. 13. Simple estimation of panel data using a random effect.

Exam conditions
To successfully complete the course, it is necessary to achieve a total of continuous and a final evaluation of at least 70% under the conditions set out below conditions. In the continuous evaluation, 30 points can be obtained, ie 30%. In the final evaluation, a total of 70 points can be obtained = 70%. Total subject classification, ie points for the final evaluation (70 - 0) + points from continuous assessment (30 - 0): A 100 - 90, B 89.99 - 84, C 83.99 - 77, D 76.99 - 73, E 72.99 - 70, FX 69.99 - 30, F 29.99 - 0. The student of the full-time form of study is obliged for contact teaching, ie everything in addition to lectures, meet the mandatory 70% attendance.
