What is LaTeX?
LaTeX is a software program for scientific documentation.
Then, why is LaTeX useful for economists?
LaTex has excellent strength in formatting math equations compared to Microsoft Word.
You do not need to download any program. You can simply use LaTex on Overleaf Site with a free account.
The economics department provides a LaTex template that follows the department guideline (see more details in the handbook). Download the below zip file and upload it on the blank project in Overleaf. Then, you are set to go!
