Igor
The Department has purchased an academic license of Igor Pro, a very powerful data analysis, programming, and graphing software for use by students on coursework. Igor is the primary tool for data analysis in several groups in the Dept. (e.g. J. Jimenez, Tolbert, Volkamer). You should install Igor on your computer by downloading it from the following website, (PC and Mac versions available).
To obtain the Serial Number and Activation Key, please contact Jose Jimenez.
Once you have installed, you should open the online manual and go through the "Getting Started in IGOR" section.
The IGOR license is for coursework in the CHEM department only. After the end of the semester, those of you joining one of the IGOR-equipped groups should install their licenses. For the rest of you, you can try to convince your advisors to get a license or you can purchase a personal license ($85 for student personal purchases).
