2. Pre-Requisites

Necessary requirements:

1.- Matrix algebra

2.- Statistical inference

3.- Introduction to econometrics: Basic model of simple linear regression.

4.- Economic theory.

5.- Economic structure and national accounting

3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession

- Introduce the student in the theoretical basic knowledge of the Econometric Methods.

- Management of basic techniques and tools for the quantification of relationships between relevant variables in the business world.

- Ability to recognize a problem, analyze it and solve it using the scientific method of modeling.

- Management of data and external and internal indicators of the company relevant for decision making.

- Apply the acquired theoretical knowledge to the realization of a paper in which the student will be able to elaborate an econometric model under the direct supervision of the professor and with the support of the computer equipment.

- Acquire the capacity for debate and informed discussion about the issues and problems that affect the business decision-making process from a quantitative perspective.

- Train the business economist to deal with situations of prediction and simulation of company policies and as a basis for making decisions.

- Design and construction of prediction models in the short-term and medium-term, of the strategic variables of the company: sales, costs, human resources, prices, business investments, etc.

- Quantify the effects of business policy changes on business results (eg: impact of advertising campaigns, changes in the product, in the organization, etc.) and measure the effectiveness of the implemented policies.

- Implement the relations and relevant variables of strategic planning in mathematical-econometric models that allow establishing alternative scenarios for the time horizon and evaluate the different policies.
