Topic

MATLAB is a widely used software environment that allows us to analyse data and present it in a variety of visual forms with ease. It enables mathematical operations to be performed even on large datasets. Data may originate from very different sources, such as measurements, databases, or spreadsheets. By integrating these data into a common framework, various mathematical and statistical operations can be carried out.

During the course, students will learn how to start developing a MATLAB script, from data import through processing to visualisation. As instructions are compiled using JIT (Just-In-Time) compilation, simple code is easy to read, can be checked at any time, and can be further developed without difficulty.

MATLAB is available free of charge for university students, whether installed on a personal computer, used online, or accessed via mobile platforms. The software provides a wide range of built-in tools for tasks across many scientific fields, such as toolboxes for working with neural networks. By the end of the course, students will reach a level at which they are able to independently analyse and visualise data for thesis projects and TDK work, tailored to the specific requirements of their research. Building on this knowledge, students will be able to learn and apply additional toolboxes independently.

No prior knowledge of MATLAB is required for this course; it starts entirely from the basics.
