Abstract

You’ve found the online causal inference course page. Although, the course text is written from a machine learning perspective, this course is meant to be for anyone with the necessary prerequisites who is interested in learning the basics of causality. I do my best to integrate insights from the many different fields that utilize causal inference such as epidemiology, economics, political science, machine learning, etc. You can see the tentative course schedule below.

You can join the course Slack workspace where you can easily start discussions with other people who are interested in causal inference. For information about office hours, see the office hours section below. If you’re interested in leading a reading group discussion, check out the suggested reading group papers to see if one piques your interest. When emailing me about this course, please include “[Causal Course]” at the beginning of your email subject to help make sure I see your email. If you want to receive course updates, sign up for the course mailing list. The main textbook we’ll use for this course is Introduction to Causal Inference (ICI), which is a book draft that I’ll continually update throughout this course.
