The Group Project requires you to demonstrate: knowledge of using Eviews to import and manipulate data, the ability to specify and estimate appropriate models; understanding of regression analysis and hypothesis testing and the ability to implement these in Eviews and interpret the output; the ability to test for unit roots, and knowledge of the consequences of unit-root non-stationarity for economic modelling; and time-series modelling.
This knowledge will be acquired by attending the lectures, the Eviews classes and the problem set classes. The material on time-series modelling and testing for unit roots, will be covered in the later weeks of the term. Hence the deadline for handing in work will be after the Easter vacation (see below).
You need to arrange yourselves into groups of 5 or 6 people (groups smaller than 5 or larger than 6 are not permitted). All members of a given group will receive the same mark, and it is up to you to determine the allocation of work within the group and to ensure that all group members make a valid contribution. All members of a group should be happy with the whole submission, as you assume joint responsibility.
