STATA for Beginners is an introductory workshop to familiarize participants with the STATA 12 interface and some basic STATA commands. It is targeted to university students and researchers who have little or no prior experience with STATA but are interested in learning the software for use in data analysis, data management, and graphical data visualization. Participants who already have Stata installed on their computers are encouraged to bring them to use during the workshop; a limited number of ISSR laptops will be available for use during the session.

Please note that the course will use STATA for PC but Mac users are welcome.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
