Statistical Research Support
MPRC offers strong support for statistical research, including server space, a dedicated facility for confidential dataset usage, and a robust training program for students and faculty.
Statistical Software Training
The Computing Core offers training in SAS and Stata. Each semester, and during the summer, we offer intense four week training classes in SAS and Stata. Increasingly, faculty and graduate students demand higher level training on specific computational issues. As a result, the Computing Core plans to expand its course offerings to more advanced topics, including Computing Models with Correlated Error Structures using AML, Calculating Standard Errors for Models with Complicated Error Structures using Stata, Using ERISA products for Geographic Analysis and Data Construction, and Parallel and Distributed Computing using Matlab and Intel Math Kernel Libraries.
