For many strategy scholars including myself Stata is the key tool, enabling us to test exciting ideas. The new version enables a few cool things prior versions did not. Very happy with it.
"Professor, Warwick Business School
I am a big fan of Stata and use it frequently for econometric analyses. I am impressed by the software providing and adopting the latest econometric techniques, and I value the ease with which complicated models and procedures can be specified.
"Professor of Financial Management, Warwick Business School
Staff and students at The University of Warwick previously accessed Stata via several disparate pools of licences. These licences were all separately purchased and managed by departments across the University and only provided access to a limited number of users in those departments. We have consequently seen a huge uptake in the number of Stata users at the University, such that it is now one of the most popular applications provided by central IT Services.
"Stata Site License - University of Warwick
Absolutely beautiful session on a very difficult subject given by an experienced and gifted teacher in a logical and easy way. I couldn't be more satisfied.

An Introduction to Linear Mixed Models using Stata
Mixed modelling is a modern and powerful data analysis tool for modelling clustered data, typically used for modelling data collected in studies where the levels of a factor are considered to be a random selection from a wider pool, or in the presence of a multi-level structure with different levels of variability.
The course will focus on medical and health related applications of mixed modelling. Specific applications include multi-centre trials and cross-over trials in addition to the analysis of repeated measurements.

An Introduction to Machine Learning using Stata - Co-Developed with Lancaster University Management School
This course is a primer to machine learning techniques using Stata. Today, various machine learning packages are available within Stata, but some of these are not known to all Stata users. This course fills this gap by making participants familiar with Stata's potential to draw knowledge and value from rows of large, and possibly noisy data. The teaching approach will be based on the graphical language and intuition more than on algebra. The sessions will make use of instructional as well as real-world examples, and will balance theory and practical sessions evenly.
