Welcome to the Accounting Coding Camp
Learn the Essentials of SAS, Python, and STATA to Conduct Empirical Research in Accounting and Finance
Meet the Accounting Coding Camp Team
The Accounting Coding Camp is taught by a team of experienced professors: Mike Drake, Josh Lee, and Jake Thornock. This team has published many articles in the top academic journals, including JAR, JAE, TAR, CAR, RAST, JF, JFE and MS.
Use SAS to import data locally or directly from WRDS and prepare data for statistical analysis.
Use Python to import data locally or directly from WRDS, prepare data for statistical analysis, scrape data from the web, perform robotic process automation, and perform textual analysis.
Use STATA to run statistical models and create beautifully-formatted output tables.
Content & Materials
The Accounting Coding Camp covers foundational programming skills in SAS, Python and STATA needed to conduct empirical research. The course will also provide an introduction on how to access and manipulate data from standard financial datasets, as well as an introduction to basic web scraping of EDGAR and Yahoo! Finance. Students will be able to download all of the programs used in the course, including all of the solution and replication code.
Format
The Accounting Coding Camp is conducted entirely online and consists of a series of asynchronous videos and exercises. This format provides students with maximum flexibility around the timing and pace of their learning experience. Students will have access to the material for one-year starting on their enrollment date.
