This seminar provides a background to formulating and then executing a research project in economics.  Along the way, we will focus on several research skills that include identifying and motivating a topic for research, writing an analytical review of the literature, identifying the appropriate theoretical framework and writing a research proposal.  Over the course of the semester, developing and improving writing skills will be emphasized.  Students taking Applied Econometrics are expected to use this course to formulate a proposal for their applied econometrics paper.
