Welcome! This is a repository containing all relevant materials for AGEC 317, as taught by Michael Black in the Spring of 2020 at Texas A&M University. Browse through the repository for all materials, or see below for the syllabus and lecture notes.
Feel free to clone the repo and use the materials for yourself. If you are using any of the material in your own course, please let me know, and if you could cite this repo or my personal site, that would be great!
After moving to an online format with the advent of COVID-19, my lectures moved from the classroom to YouTube! You can watch lecture videos for modules 6 - 8 on my YouTube channel.
For those interested in using R, see my tutorial for beginners. The tutorial should give you the skills to replicate any of the problem sets in R. If you want to check your answers or troubleshoot, don't hesitate to reach out.
Please see the original syllabus for details on the intended course outline and structure, and the adjusted syllabus for details on the course after moving to an online format.
