The RSS group provides software support for a number of
statistical packages whether the assistance required be more technical or
analytical. While our personal preferences focus on R, we have much
experience with the others we support and are happy to provide aid regarding
them. While you may have access to other programs depending on specific
departments' expenditures, those listed below are the only packages we at
RSS support, and we do not have the resources to provide help with other
packages you may come across.
Software we support is available in most computer labs in
their full version for free.
Clicking on the package links will take you to their
individual pages for basic descriptions and additional resources. A comparison
of packages and other links can be found below.

* The University's licenses for SAS and SPSS allow for
a limited number of copies to be made available for student home use. Academic
Computing and User Services will support home installation of these programs for
graduate students who are pursuing thesis or dissertation research and require
one of these programs for their research data analysis. Requests for home use
will need to be endorsed by a professor who is guiding or sponsoring the student
research activity. Students may initiate a home use request by visiting
here and making a "Request
for Software". Students are encouraged to provide sufficient contact information
to enable timely communication regarding their request.For specific questions regarding license terms and conditions, contact
Patrick Mcleod.
** Only 6 home licenses are available for NVivo and all
6 are in use.
