The Social Science Computing Cooperative supports research and instruction across the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The SSCC's core strengths include statistical software, remote access to services, and an extensive computing infrastructure. Some SSCC services are available only to those affiliated with the SSCC's member agencies, but others are available to the broader campus community.

The SSCC Knowledge Base is available to anyone. Some articles explain how to use SSCC resources, like email or Condor. Others discuss statistical software, including general introductions to Stata and SPSS and guides to specific topics like bootstrapping in Stata.

SSCC training classes are free and available to anyone in the UW community. Topics include statistical software and other research tools.

The SSCC also supports University classes in the Social Science Division. Our resources for instruction include a computer classroom and computer labs with statistical software installed, access to Winstat for running statistical software from home, and staff assistance for both instructors and students. Graduate students in the Social Science division can also be given lab accounts for their research work.
