MATLAB is used across the campus and across the disciplines. It is available to be installed on student, faculty, and staff personal and Bowdoin-issued devices.

Licensing

Current MATLAB licensing allows access to the main application, more than 90 toolboxes provided by Mathworks, access to MATLAB Online, MATLAB Mobile for iOS/Android OS, MATLAB's Online documentation and more. New installations of MATLAB are no longer required to talk with a Bowdoin license manager, however some on-campus computers will continue to use a license manager and must be run from the Bowdoin network.

For instructions on how to create a Mathworks account and to download and install MATLAB, see the article listed under the "Related Articles" section.

Toolboxes

There are a variety of toolboxes which Bowdoin traditionally licensed for use on all lab computers. The toolboxes are listed below:

• Curve Fitting Toolbox
• Database Toolbox
• Financial Instruments Toolbox
• Financial Toolbox
• Global Optimization Toolbox 
• Mapping Toolbox
• Neural Network Toolbox
• Optimization Toolbox
• Parallel Computing Toolbox 
• Signal Processing Toolbox
• Spreadsheet Link EX
• Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox 
• Symbolic Math Toolbox

With the new licensing, Bowdoin community members have access to all 90+ toolboxes available from Mathworks.
