Introduction
In this session we will go over how you can have access to the tools and why MATLAB is an important skill to have on your CV

Programming Techniques in MATLAB
In this session, you will gain an understanding of how different MATLAB data types are stored in memory and how you can program in MATLAB to use memory efficiently. Above and beyond that there will also be several tips and trick shared to speed up MATLAB applications
We will also share several practical examples of how MATLAB is used in Industry

Enabling Project-Based Learning with MATLAB, Simulink and low-cost hardware
This session will show you how to develop, simulate, test and implement algorithms in low-cost hardware platforms (Arduino, LEGO, Raspberry Pi, etc.) using MATLAB and Simulink, to facilitate teaching and learning through innovative methodologies such as Project-Based Learning.
