SPSS/AMOS

SPSS/AMOS for Remote Work

ITS offers alternative access options for IBM SPSS/AMOS statistical software for faculty, staff and students.

Option 1: On-Premise and Remote Access:

ITS has installed SPSS/AMOS in designated labs and on WSU-owned desktop / laptops computers of faculty and staff who have requested on-premise access. This option allows you to have access to SPSS/AMOS software on your WSU-owned computer with access to your files and network shares.

If you remote to your WSU computer via the authorized virtual private network (VPN) when away from campus, you will still have access to the installed SPSS/AMOS software on your WSU computer and access to your data files, including network shares.

If you would like to have SPSS/AMOS installed on your WSU computer, please submit the ticket by clicking on .

Option 2: Off-Premise Access

For faculty, staff and students who cannot be on campus or remote to their WSU owned-computer from off campus, or while away from their WSU computer or lab, ITS offers an authorized access version of SPSS/AMOS.

This option allows you to install SPSS/AMOS on your home computer, but may limit access to data files stored on your WSU computer or network shares (see Installing SPSS on Personal Devices below). The license for Option 2 expires each year on June 30; if you wish to continue using SPSS/AMOS while employed or as an active student at WSU beyond the June 30 expiration, you will need to obtain a new license.

Click the link below for instructions are on how to obtain the SPSS/AMOS license and download the software for Option 2:

Installing SPSS on Personal Devices

Installing SPSS on Personal Devices:

Personal-owned devices lack the same administrative and technical protections as machines issued by WSU. Personal-owned devices should not be used for confidential information or datasets that WSU is under contractual obligation to protect. In the event where there is concern over the security of the data, WSU and current research face damages to the loss and additional outside oversight.

If you have questions or concerns, please reach out to askinfosec@wichita.edu.
