Introduction to Small Area Estimation

Different methods will be explained using simple examples. Data analyses using several real life examples will be presented.

The course begins with a history of small-area estimation and different uses of small-area statistics in both public and private sectors. It will then discuss and examine various direct and indirect small-area estimation methods available in the literature.The course is not designed to provide an in-depth study of any topic, but to provide an overview of small-area estimation. The course is intended for quantitatively oriented students. Formulas will be presented wherever necessary to explain some of the advanced topics but without any derivations.
