Data Analysis and Decision Making using Stata
IM0202150
Introduction
Stata is a statistical software that enables users to analyse, manage, and produce graphical visualisations of data. It is designed for participants without or with very limited experience using Stata, but it requires basic knowledge of descriptive statistics. Participants will learn to import data, construct workflow, and deal with missing data, and data manipulation.
Stata also allows participants to run basic statistical routines, combine datasets, and programming, create communicative graphics, run regression models, and present statistical results. Participants will also learn how to utilise loops and local or global variables, use advanced commands such as by, collapse, or reshape and create informative do-files.
Learning Outcome
At the end of the program, participants will be able to:
- Use the basic features in Stata.
- Understand basic data description.
- Analyse data using a series of commands.
- Import data from other applications and the internet.
- Independently create a working dataset from raw data, conduct statistical analyses, and create informative graphics.
