PRESENTATION

This course introduces students to spatial econometrics, in order to provide them a useful technical tool to analyze innovation, industrial, and growth dynamics.

Spatial econometrics is a subfield of econometrics which intersects with spatial analysis, and it is used to analyze spatial dependence among observations, which often arises when observations are collected from points or regions located in space.

Spatial econometrics represents a methodology which has been acquiring more and more relevance during the recent years within the econometric literature, and it has been used extensively in different fields in economics, such as industrial organization, international economics, and growth.
