For their final research project, students in AEDA chose their own topics. As a result, topics range widely from: gender differences in labor markets during COVID, to determinants of gender based violence in Nepal, to urban China’s socioeconomic dynamics, to determinants of housing cost in the US, to Hanoi real estate pricing, to determinants of reusable bag usage, to determinants of web satisfaction, to a sentiment analysis of cell phone reviews, to explaining performance of mutual funds. Also included are five analyses of four sports: baseball, basketball, ice hockey and lacrosse. In short, there is something here for everyone.
