If you're looking to untangle cause and effect in a complex world, then econometrics is what you seek.
Join MIT professor Josh Angrist and learn to master the econometrics "Furious Five": random assignment, regression, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity designs, and differences-in-differences methods.
