MATLAB: General Information
License Information
Total Academic Headcount License (Faculty/Staff)
Licensed products may be installed and used in North America only by Duke faculty and academic staff on Duke-owned or leased individual, standalone computers and network servers. Duke faculty. academic staff may install and use the programs on their personally owned computers, on campus, off campus, and via remote access. This license includes designated computer, group license, and network concurrent options for Duke faculty and academic staff, meaning it can be installed and licensed on individual computers, in computer labs, or over a LAN using a FLEXnet server.
This software may only be used for noncommercial, academic purposes by licensed users. This is limited to software administration, teaching, and noncommercial, academic research during a Duke faculty or academic staff member's ordinary course as a Duke employee.
Students qualify as licensed users solely for the purpose of using the programs in on-campus computing facilities and are expressly prohibited from installing and executing the programs on their personally owned computers under the faculty/staff license. Students having multiple affiliations, e.g. student/staff are considered licensed users for their nonstudent roles at Duke and may use the software for those purposes only.
The TAH (Total Academic Headcount) license is funded by OIT, and the software is distributed at no cost to the Duke community. MathWorks accounts are authorized for licensed users, and the software may be downloaded directly from the MathWorks website.
Total Student Headcount License (Students)
Licensed products may be installed and used by Duke students only on their personally-owned or leased computers. Student licensed users may not use a program on more than two computers simultaneously. Programs licensed under the Total Student Headcount license option may not be used by Duke faculty or academic staff.
Students may only use this software for meeting classroom requirements of Duke courses and study.
