SAS is a powerful statistical package that runs on many platforms, including Windows and Unix. This class is designed for people who are just getting started using SAS. The students in the class will have a hands-on experience using SAS for statistics, graphics, and data management. The SAS class notes do not contain any of the computer output. The class notes are not meant to be a SAS textbook or a reference manual. However, it is possible for individuals to use the class notes to help in learning SAS even if they don’t enroll in the classes.

Students should bring their own laptop computers with SAS installed.  SAS can be purchased from the computer store in the book store in Ackerman, or students can download SAS University Edition (https://www.sas.com/en_us/software/university-edition.html ), which is free.
