Getting Started
Run module avail to get a list of all software modules, or module spider to get a list of available versions of MATLAB.

Use module load to set up your environment, and then run matlab to start an interactive session.
module load matlab matlab
If you have not configured a remote display MATLAB will start in text-mode, but the MATLAB desktop is also supported.
ssh -X sunetid@rice.stanford.edu module load matlab matlab &
Running MATLAB in Batch Mode
If you have prepared MATLAB code as a program (.m) file you can run it non-interactively.
matlab -nodesktop < program.m
You can use this method to submit a MATLAB job to a compute node, and you can even include MATLAB code in-line in an sbatch script.
#!/bin/bash module load matlab matlab -nodesktop << EOF % MATLAB code EOF
Using MDCS
MATLAB Distributed Computing Server is supported, and you can submit jobs using up to 256 workers. For more information, see Getting Started with Serial and Parallel MATLAB.
Jupyter
MATLAB can also be run in a Jupyter notebook on FarmShare servers and used via a web browser.
The MATLAB Jupyter kernel is available as part of the prebuilt Jupyter environment accessible via the Jupyter installation guide.
