Stata Quantitative Research Software Now Available
CAHSS Purchases Site License
The College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences (CAHSS) has purchased a site license for the quantitative research application Stata. This software is available to all UMBC faculty, staff, and graduate students. It is similar to SPSS, R, and SAS in functionality. While SPSS is typically used in fields such as Sociology and Psychology, R by computer science and math domains, and SAS for administrative functionality, Stata is widely adopted for econometric modeling. The licensed multicore package, Stata/MP, will allow for accelerated processing with larger variable sets and more observations than either Stata/SE or Stata/IC. Both flexible and powerful, the off-the-shelf functionality of this software makes it the Porsche of quantitative packages.
