Installing Matlab Locally

Departments that wish to install Matlab locally must meet the following conditions:

  • The installation must reside on a university owned machine connected to the BU main campus network.
  • Print and complete a Media Loan Application and submit it to the IS&T Front Office, 111 Cummington Street. open 9am - 5pm Monday - Friday.
  • Supported Matlab Platforms
  • A limited number of individual copies may be purchased by departments for use on laptops for a fee. Contact us for more information. The standalone copy does not include any toolboxes.

All Windows PC and Mac OS media loans go through the IS&T Front Office at 111 Cummington Street. For other loans, contact syssupport@bu.edu. When you pick up Matlab media, you will be asked for your signed Media Loan Application and your BU ID card. If you are a student employee managing a department machine, a member of the BU staff or faculty must verify your employment status.

Once Information Services & Technology has your written agreement to the above conditions, we'll subscribe you to the matlab-list mailing list and give you a valid license. You must remain on the mailing list to receive notices of changes in the status of the license servers and BU license expiration date.
