| Info & Registration | Workshop Site (note: site times out after 20 min) | |
| Audience | Aimed at users with an intermediate background in econometrics and some knowledge of spatial analysis.

| Summary | The workshop will be held in a state of the art teaching laboratory at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. It spans four days, and will be held in two sessions, 9:00am-12:30 and 2:00-5:30pm (except on the last day, which will run from 8:30am to 4:00pm to allow participants sufficient time to return on the last flight out of Champaign airport). | |
| Lectures and demonstrations will be held in the morning session, while in the afternoon the emphasis will be on hands on experience and laboratory exercises using cutting edge specialized software, including GeoDa, R spdep, and PySpace. There will also be an opportunity to discuss individual research problems with Dr. Anselin in “office hours.” A reception and Happy Hour, respectively, are offered in the evening of the first and third day. | ||
| Each participant will receive a package containing a CD with software, readings and sample data sets as well as printouts of all the course slides and other supporting materials. | ||
