Lehigh University manages a campus site license for SPSS that is available for faculty, staff or students at Lehigh. There are two methods of obtaining and/or using the SPSS software:
- Virtually via LUapps (https://luapps.lehigh.edu/Citrix/LehighWeb/). LUapps is a virtual software delivery system that allows users to access a variety of software titles. In most cases, the software available via LUapps is the newest version. The SPSS License is renewed October 1 or each year, so if a newer version becomes available at that time, it will be upgraded during the winter break since LTS does not upgrade software during the semester.
