Welcome to the Main Library and Scholarly Commons Library Guide for Stata Data Analysis and Statistical Software at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. This guide provides users with an introduction and resources to become familiar with Stata

As of August 2018, the Scholarly Commons hosts Stata/SE version 12.

Stata is a powerful statistical software that enables users to analyze, manage, and produce graphical visualizations of data. It is primarily used by researchers in the fields of economics, biomedicine, and political science to examine data patterns. It has both a command line and graphical user interface making the use of the software more intuitive. See the video below for a quick tour of the Stata interface.
