Unix Server Access

Students in the Department of Economics are given accounts on one of the Unix servers managed by the Department, which provides support for computationally intensive applications such as聽Stata,聽MATLAB,聽Ox,聽RATS聽and the Fortran-90, C, C++ and聽perl聽languages.

Econometric Software

Graduate students in economics are introduced to the use of econometric software and data resources in the first-year econometrics course. They may utilize the Department's聽Apple Macintosh OS X聽workstations, more than a dozen of which are located in departmental facilities dedicated to graduate student use. These workstations run聽Stata,聽MATLAB,聽DYNARE,聽Ox,聽Mathematica,聽TeXShop/teTeX聽and聽Microsoft Office聽applications, and provide access to Internet resources. Several locations in the computing labs and graduate lounge are equipped with Internet connections for students' laptops, and the entire campus supports WiFi wireless networking.

Mac OS

Prospective students should take note that the Department of Economics, like many departments at md传媒国产剧 College, does not provide support for Microsoft Windows-based personal computers. Software which is only available for the Windows platform is not supported. Although most up-to-date personal computers may be used to connect to the University's systems from off campus, on-campus support in Departmental facilities is limited to Apple Macintosh hardware and Mac OS X software. The resources of the md传媒国产剧 College network and the Department's xServe fileserver are accessible to students' appropriately configured home computers, either Mac or PC. Prospective students should evaluate the suitability of聽Mac OS X聽Unix-based systems for their needs (and consult with the Department's聽Faculty Technology Coordinator) before investing in personal systems.

The O'Neill Library houses a comprehensive collection of economics volumes and leading journals in economics and related fields. md传媒国产剧 College participates in the聽JSTOR聽project, giving on-line access to the entire runs of leading economics journals. Access to the Library's holdings is provided by the library catalog, accessible from any web browser. A number of online databases (such as EconLit) may be used to assist research. md传媒国产剧 College is a member of the md传媒国产剧 Library Consortium which enables graduate students to use library facilities at MIT, md传媒国产剧 University, Brandeis, Northeastern, Tufts, Wellesley, University of Massachusetts, and the md传媒国产剧 Public Library.

RePEc Initiative

The Department plays a prominent role in the RePEc (Research Papers in Economics) initiative, which provides free access to working papers, journal citations, software and contact information.
