DRE 2012 Dynamic Marketing Models
DRE 2012 Dynamic Marketing Models
This course is designed to enable students to design, estimate and communicate results of time series models in marketing. Special attention is devoted to dynamic systems of equations such as Vector Autoregressive and Vector error Correction models.
.
By the end of the course, the PhD candidate will have a strong basis in 3 skills:
1) How to design a dynamic marketing model from a real-life marketing problem
2) How to specify and estimate the appropriate model in Eviews software
3) How to report on the findings in oral (presentation) and written (paper) format
-
- Addressing marketing problems with dynamic system models
- Specifying and estimating dynamic system models
- What-if and forecasting analysis in dynamic systems
- Interpreting results in dynamic system models
- Communicating and publishing papers on dynamic marketing problems
- A detailed schedule with specific course topics will be distributed during the first meeting.
The class will meet each day for a week. The class will employ a combination of lectures and discussions of assigned readings, as well as exercises to be completed outside of class. Students are expected to thoroughly read the required readings or complete the exercises prior to each meeting.
If students have to miss class on a particular day, it is the students’ responsibility to get notes from a classmate. Let the course responsible know as soon as possible if you have to miss a class.
If students experience any problem(s) with the seminar or any of the classmates it is expected that the students report any problem(s) that they are not able to resolve themselves to course responsible as soon as possible.
Unexcused absence will result in a lower class participation grade
