Project topic proposal

Choose a project topic related to and clearly explain the main economic question you want to explore. Explain why this topic matters for understanding growth, inflation, unemployment, or macroeconomic stability. Also include:

• Data Sources: Identify at least one real data source you plan to use, such as FRED, BLS, Census, World Bank, or another credible dataset. Briefly describe what variables you expect to use and how they connect to your question.
• Literature and Background: Reference at least one credible article, academic paper, or policy report related to your topic. Explain how this source helps frame your project or motivates your research question.
• Approach and Expectations: Describe how you plan to analyze the data, such as trend analysis, comparisons over time, or simple empirical relationships. Your proposal should be about 400 words, written clearly, and focused on feasibility rather than final results.
