What is Minitab, and where can I access it?

Minitab, originally intended as a tool for teaching statistics, is a general purpose statistical software package designed for easy interactive use. Minitab is well suited for instructional applications and is most popular as a teaching tool; however, it is also powerful enough to be used as a primary tool for analyzing research data.

At Indiana University Bloomington, Minitab 15 is available for Windows in the UITS Student Technology Centers (STCs).

At IUPUI, Minitab 15 is available for Windows in the following STCs:

• BS 3005 (Business/SPEA)
• IT 131 (Informatics and Communications Technology Complex)

For information on where you can find Minitab manuals at IU, see the Stat/Math Center's Software Manuals.

Note: If you are a student using Minitab for a class exercise and have questions about your work, please begin by asking your class instructors for help.

For more information about statistical and mathematical software, email the UITS Stat/Math Center, visit the center's web page, or phone 812-855-4724 (IUB) or 317-278-4740 (IUPUI). The center is located in Bloomington at 410 N. Park Avenue, and is open for consultation by appointment Monday-Friday 9am-5pm.
