CSCAR - the Center for Statistical Consultation and Research
CSCAR provides statistical services to faculty, primary researchers, graduate students and staff of the University. CSCAR does not typically work with undergraduate students. CSCAR consultants are available to consult on spatial analysis and use of relevant tools.

The Clark Library provides services to campus and community members. We provide help with finding and converting data, and using QGIS and ArcGIS desktop software, as well as online mapping tools such as ArcGIS Online, Carto, Social Explorer, and others. We typically refer to CSCAR when there is a need for consultation regarding analysis.

Other Units
