Department of Econometrics focuses on understanding and modelling important economic and financial problems like decision making of agents, asset pricing, understating interaction between agents, or recently understanding the economic impacts of pandemics. We offer solutions to these problems with the help of mathematical models as well as statistical methodologies. More recently, we utilize modern machine learning methods for decision-making problems and analyze high-dimensional data sets (big data). We particularly focus on understanding economic and financial problems, focusing on estimation of real-world data.
In our department, we cover topics such as Machine Learning/Statistical Learning, Dynamic networks and financial decision making, Dynamic quantile asset pricing models, Measurement of dependence between cyclical economic variables, High-frequency data analysis, Agent based models, Stochastic optimization and Macroeconomics.
