********************************************************************
The course is a basic introduction to empirical work, mainly based on VARs (vector autoregressions). Students will be taught all of the basic aspects of empirical analysis, from the simplest (e.g., performing tests on the order of integration of the series), to the relatively more sophisticated (e.g., using VARs in order to compute forecasts of the future evolution of the economy, and measures of uncertainty around that). Particular attention will be paid to techniques and applications which are relevant for policy institutions (such as central banks).
