MATLAB Learning Resources
- Jessica Steele
Students and new users can learn MATLAB and Simulink interactively with courses through MATLAB Academy. MATLAB Onramp, a two-hour introduction to the software, is complimentary for licensed users. Other offerings are fee-based. The courses include demonstrations, quizzes and hands-on MATLAB practice sessions that allow students to apply the skills immediately. Course content is provided in short well-defined modules, enabling students to jump to the topics of most interest.
Note: Students can install MATLAB for free. View the MATLAB article for software information and installation instructions.
