Impact Evaluation is the study of causal relations between a program, policy or intervention and outcomes of interest.

The lab provides students with an introduction to STATA ( first 6 weeks) and   the science of cause and effects (if  causation is not correlation, then what is it?). For the first 6 weeks see B030726 (B214) - STATA LAB I: SOFTWARE.

In the second module, popular impact analysis techniques will be presented focussing on the conditioning approaches ( reg analysis and matching) with applications to development policies and stata code.
