This course will teach you quantitative research methods when you conduct an industrial analysis. I will also take aviation industry, real estate industry, and tire industry as examples to discuss how to apply these quantitative methods. Because our discussion in this course is based on the concepts in economics and statistics, I strongly suggest you have a good understanding in economics (microeconomics or managerial economics) and statistics before you take this course. This course have two parts: analysis tools/quantitative methods, and how to use these tools on important issues in industrial analysis. In the method part, I will focus on regression analysis. We will discuss how to use this method, and how to properly interpret the regression result; I will then introduce topics regarding endogeneity, nonlinear regression, and interaction terms. We will also discuss how to analysis time-series cross-sectional data, and how to use this type of data to deal with the omitted variable bias (one kind of endogeneity). In the application part, I will discuss issues relevant to demand, supply, and market structure. When discussing issues about demand, I will teach you how to find demand curves via market data; hence, I will introduce instrumental variable regression. When discussing issues about supply, we will discuss how to estimate production functions and the impact of technological change on industries. Finally, we will discuss issues regarding market structure, such as market concentration, and firm entry and survival. Moreover, to let you have an opportunity to apply these quantitative methods to practice, you need to complete a group project. In this project, you have to pick an industry first. Then, you have to collect data, and try to find the demand or supply curve, or try to answer relevant questions in that industry via data. You can learn how to make decisions based on evidence; understand the idea of evidence-based management.
