Summer Schools in Time Series and Econometrics in Industrial Organization

In June 28-30, 2010, we are running the 2nd Summer School on Time Series Modelling and Analysis, by Prof. Andrew Harvey (Cambridge). Last year, several colleagues attending and especially those in the waiting list asked for us to organize it again, so there we are. This is a hands-on course on methods and techniques employed for analysing and modelling time series in Finance, Economics and other fields such as Geography, Engineering and Biology. Statistical modelling will be demonstrated using STAMP (http://www.stamp-software.com). Participants will be given the opportunity to use the package in class. For more information, including the program, please visit: http://www.busman.qmul.ac.uk/cgr/cgr-summerschool/sspages/Home.html In June 30 to July 2, 2010, we are running the Summer School Econometric Methods for Demand Systems in Economics and Marketing, by Melvyn Weeks (Cambridge). This is a hands-on course designed to introduce academics, consultants and policy makers to the recent empirical literature of industrial organisation, with particular focus on demand systems.http://www.busman.qmul.ac.uk/cgr/cgr-summerschool-Melvyn_Weeks/  Thank you very much.Best wishes,Alvaro AngerizSchool of Business and ManagementQueen Mary University of London
