OIT has entered into a volume license agreement with the makers of Stata, and is selling activations of Stata/SE software to Duke faculty, staff, and students for $80 each. The normal academic price for this type of license is $245.
Licenses are now available for pre-order at https://oit.duke.edu/comp-print/software/license/detail.php?id=114, and we expect to have the software later this week. If you purchase now, the software will be e-mailed to you immediately when it is available, and the license will be good for one year from that date.
Stata/SE licenses purchased through OIT will expire annually in July and will need to be renewed before that date at the then-current cost to continue working. Each license allows the installation and activation Stata/SE on one computer. Additional licenses will need to be purchased for additional activations.
Stata/SE is the general-purpose version of Stata for large data sets. Read more about Stata versions here. Other versions will still be available through the GradPlan.
