Environmental Modeling Using MatLab and Stata

Environmental Modeling Using MatLab and Econometric Analysis Using Stata

 

This three month long course introduces the use of MatLab for Environmental Modeling and leads to develop advanced level comprehensive skills in both Environmental Modeling and use of MatLab. The course also introduces the basic and advanced Econometric Modeling in the area of Environmental Economics and using Stata.

The course is aimed towards Environmental Economists, Environmental Practioners, Students and faculty to develop hands on Environmental Modeling, MatLab, Econometrics and Stata. There is dire need for such course in the realm of today’s fast moving Technological era and development of new models and theories to understand, apply and extend. This course helps in these dimensions.

 

The course starts on May 20, 2012.
