      Organisational online arrangements for the end of Q3 2019-2020 assessments (Covid-19)
      • Written exam (multiple choice, open questions)
      Description of the modifications to the Q3 2019-2020 online assessment procedures (Covid-19)

      -The subject to know for the exam based on the course notes + slides available on moodle :
        - univariate time series analysis
        - VAR(p) models
        - Non-stationarity and unit root testing
        - Volatility modeling
        - Econometrics of binary variables
      Examination procedures :
       - Duration: between 2 to 3h (will be specified on the form, the day of the examen)entr
      - form available on Moodle on the day of the test
      - mix of multiple choice + small open-ended questions
      - questions on theory
      - small exercises directly related to theory
               * identification of ARMA models based on correlograms or partial correlograms
               * translate a specification into an equation
                             Ex : Q : y_t follows an ARMA(1,2) ARCH(3) process :
                                     A : y_t= mu + phi_1*y_t-1 + u_t + theta_1*u_t-1 + theta_2 * u_t-2
                                                   with u_t ~ N(0,sigma²_t)
                                         sigma²_t=alpha_0 + alpha_1*u²_t-1 + alpha_2*u²_t-2 + alpha_3*u²_t-3

      .
