Il corso si propone di fornire agli studenti i metodi quantitativi per l'analisi dell’economia e della politica economica. Il corso è strutturato in tre moduli. Ogni modulo copre diversi concetti e metodi con un approccio quantitativo applicato:
Modulo 1: tecniche e dati geospaziali per l'analisi socio-economica e ambientale
Modulo 2: valutazione controfattuale dell'impatto ex post delle politiche pubbliche
Modulo 3: modelli CGE per la valutazione ex-ante dell'impatto delle politiche commerciali
Modulo 1: tecniche e dati geospaziali per l'analisi socio-economica e ambientale
Modulo 2: valutazione controfattuale dell'impatto ex post delle politiche pubbliche
Modulo 3: modelli CGE per la valutazione ex-ante dell'impatto delle politiche commerciali
