Details
Responsible DepartmentDepartment of Food Science

Course DatesApril, 2013, 15th - 19th .
 
Course AbstractThe course entitled "Advanced MATLAB" is a 5-day focused at PhD candidate level with an interest in using the programming and analysis software MATLAB (MAtrix LABoratory) for an advanced use of Data Analysis. The course is a perfect follow-up of the course "introductory MATLAB" in which the students and researchers will increase the knowledge about handling and managing their scientific data. The course gives advanced and dedicated lessons of the possibilities of MATLAB.

Teaching and learning Methods
- Contact Teaching: the basis of the course teaching will be done by presentations. The students will be able to follow all the exercises in their own computers. - Learning: Apart from the exercises presented at class, the students will be given several exercises that the must solve for the report. - Educational approaches: This course is addressed to PhD student or advanced Master students. The educational background of the students will be different.
 
Learning Outcome
