This course was developed by an award winning professor, dr. Deni Mazrekaj, with the support of a dedicated team of researchers, educational specialists, and content creators.
Deni Mazrekaj is a professor of sociology at Utrecht University and an affiliated researcher at the University of Oxford. He holds a Ph.D. in Economics from KU Leuven. Deni has taught Advanced Quantitative Methods at the University of Oxford and is currently the coordinator of the Methods and Statistics course at Utrecht University. In his spare time, he is an associate editor of the interdisciplinary Nature journal Humanities & Social Sciences Communications. Deni has received several awards from the American Sociological Association, and the European Academy of Sociology for his research in sociology.
As a data scientist, I struggled to understand quasi-experimental methods and how to apply them. This course not only provided a clear and concise overview of the concepts but also allowed me to practice using them in various scenarios. I feel much more prepared and confident in my abilities now.
I was intimidated by the math-heavy courses on quasi-experimental methods, but the “Instrumental Variables” course was exactly what I needed. The intuitive approach made it easy to understand and now I feel confident in my ability to apply these techniques in my research.
I was skeptical about how much I would be able to learn in a course without a strong math background, but this course exceeded my expectations. The instructors’ clear explanations and intuitive approach made it easy to grasp the math concepts and apply them in my work. Thank you!
I didn’t expect a course on Instrumental Variables to be so engaging! The clear examples, real-life applications, and well-structured lessons kept me motivated throughout. I’m now using the techniques I learned in my own research with great success.
The mix of theoretical insights and hands-on practice in this course was exactly what I needed. It’s one thing to understand the theory, but being able to apply it in real-world scenarios using Stata was invaluable. I highly recommend this course for anyone looking to deepen their knowledge of causal inference.
I have taken several statistics courses before, but none have explained the concept of Instrumental Variables as clearly as this one. The instructor’s approach to simplifying complex ideas without compromising depth is exceptional. I now feel more confident in my data analysis skills.
Edooko courses are suitable for researchers, PhD candidates, data scientists, and anyone with a solid grasp of statistics who is seeking to enhance their understanding of quantitative methods. Our courses are not beginner-friendly.
To get the most out of our courses, we recommend that students have a solid grasp of undergraduate level statistics and mathematics. This includes a basic understanding of concepts such as probability, sampling, hypothesis testing, and regression analysis.
The assignments we give may include quizzes, problem sets, written assignments, and projects. The specific assignments will depend on the course and may vary from one module to the next.
Yes, you can enroll at any time and learn at your own pace.
