Causal Inference II. November 15th, 16th, 22nd and 23rd
Full Schedule: https://www.mixtapesessions.io/session/ci_II_nov15

Workshop description:Causal inference Part II is a 4-day workshop in design based causal inference series. It will cover difference-in-differences starting from the basics and taking readers into more contemporary design elements with staggered adoption and the incorporation of covariates. Each day is 8 hours with 15 minute breaks on the hour plus an hour for lunch. We will review the theory behind each design, go into detail on the intuition of the estimation strategies and identification itself, as well as explore code in R and Stata and applications using these methods. The goal as always is that participants leave the workshop with competency and confidence. This class will be a sequel to the 4-day workshop on Causal Inference Part I and is followed by Causal Inference Part III.Daily Structure:This is a 4-day workshop. The goal of the workshop is for students to gain enough knowledge from the lectures and experience from the programming activities that they become confident and capable enough to implement and interpret these methods in their own work, as well as continue to learn this new material on their own after the workshop concludes. Each day lasts 8 hours with lectures and “coding together” sessions. About the instructor:Scott Cunningham is a professor of economics at Baylor University in Waco Texas.
