General purpose software for research
The universities community has acquired several software for study and work purposes. Please see the Software catalog to find a suitable solution to your data processing needs.
Software that are widely used in research include, for example, Atlas.ti (qualitative research), SPSS (statistical analysis), and Matlab (a mathematical calculation and programming environment), but there are also several field-specific solutions. When you need a software, check the catalog first for a suitable option even if it is not one that you are already familiar with.
