“ CSI programs cannot be run directly within the Mac operating system. However, if Windows operating system is virtualized on the Mac machine (via virtualization platforms such as Parallels or VMware Fusion), then CSI programs can be run within such virtualized Windows operating system. “

That means Rosetta 2, right?

You can reference new Parallels Desktop for updates—
"We switched Parallels Desktop to universal binary and optimized its virtualization code; and the version that we are eager to try on these new MacBook Air, Mac mini and MacBook Pro 13" new M1 SoC" by Nick Dobrovolskiy
Parallels Desktop for Apple Silicon Mac
https://www.parallels.com/blogs/parallels-desktop-apple-silicon-mac/
Would suggest contacting the Developer of ETABS and ask them
Neither Parallels nor VMWare can virtualize Windows on an M1 Mac at this time.
Can I use Universal or Rosetta 2 instead?
No.
" we are eager to try on these new MacBook Air, Mac mini and MacBook Pro 13" new M1 SoC" by Nick Dobrovolskiy = does not mean it works but try implies Beta
