The University of Essex is one of the UK's leading academic institutions, ranked ninth nationally for research excellence following the most recent Research Assessment Exercise (RAE).
We run our MSc Applied Economics and Data Analysis jointly with our Institute for Social and Economic Research (ISER), which specialises in the analysis of household and labour market data. Our MSc Applied Economics and Data Analysis has a data-orientated, applied focus.
One compulsory module (taught by ISER) is Panel Data Methods, which introduces the main techniques used in the analysis of panel data, the specification of models, and the tests of their validity. It includes methods for analysing persistence over time in economic variables, for example the duration of an individual’s unemployment spell. Another core module, Applications of Data Analysis, focuses on handling different types of datasets, on survey methodology and sampling frames, and on how to deal with problems of response rates and attrition. These modules provide the tools for analysing and implementing some of the models that are presented in theory modules, like Microeconomics.
