Course # 37040 Day(s) M- W- F Time(s) 9:00am-10:20am Term Winter 2025 Specialization International Policy Course Instructor Miguel Santos This is a capstone course that enables students to deploy a variety of analytical tools to process and interpret available data and formulate a coherent diagnostic that can make sense of simultaneous observations about growth and social outcomes within a particular context. It covers the theory and practice of the Economic Complexity and Growth Diagnostics frameworks, drawing on empirical research, case studies, and real world-data to map opportunities for productive diversification, identify the most binding constraints preventing them from materializing, and formulating data-driven productive development policies (PDPs) to overcome them. Notes This course will hold lectures three times per week on M/W/F for the month of January. Beginning in February some meetings will become TA-led discussion sessions and weekly meetings will be reduced. (Please see syllabus for additional course meeting details.)
