  • What is a time series, definition and intrinsic properties, levels vs. first differences, the notion of lags, the notion and use of the Correlogram, Stationarity vs. Non-Sttionarity.  
  • Univariate modelling, ARIMA models, The Box-Jenkins approach, identification, estimation and testing.  
  • Formal testing for Unit Roots, Dickey-Fuller test, Phillips-Perron test.
  • Dynamic Modelling, Vector Autoregressive Models, Granger Causality.
  • Modelling Long-Run relationships, the notion of Cointegration, The Engle-Granger Approach.
