Popular economics programs include Julia, Mathematica, MATLAB, Python, R and SAS. Many of these have pages with program-specific advice and templates, for example:
Stata 18.5 and 19.5 are available to ARE - access can be requested through an access form. See https://github.com/rpguiteras/HPC/wiki/Stata-on-the-HPC for Stata-specific advice.

Conda is an open source package management system that can be used on HPC:

HPC software may "live" in a place where you do not have write permissions. This can make it difficult to add non-standard modules or packages.
For an example of how to address this in Stata, see User-Written Commands on the Stata on the HPC page. Similar workarounds may be necessary for other programs -- examples would be welcome.
Be sure to check the HPC resource page for the program you are using. For example, the HPC R page discusses installing R packages through Conda (the method they recommend) or install.packages.
