Outline (in English)

In this course, we study the empirical side of the study in international trade. We use the on-demand system to take lectures so that students can learn anytime convenient. We begin with monopolistic competition model and models with producer. We also focus on the estimation issues in gravity model. We discuss how to deal with border effects, zero trade observations, and selection problems. If time permits, we will cover the empirical trade models with political economy.

Students are expected to read the papers I advance and be familiar with introductory econometrics, microeconomics, and international economics. Students are also strongly encouraged to learn Stata and Matlab. Students are encouraged to study 4 hours before/after each class. There will be assignments during the course. You have to submit these homework assignments by the due date. Your grade will be determined by the homework (20%) and your performance at the final examination or term paper (80%).
