About Specialization Programming in MATLAB for Engineers and Scientists course
This specialization is designed to help students with little or no programming experience learn to write MATLAB programs that solve real-world problems in engineering and the sciences. The focus is on computer programming in general, but it also covers in detail the many features of the language that make MATLAB uniquely suited for engineering and scientific computing. Topics covered range from basic programming concepts in the first year, through more advanced techniques including recursion, program efficiency, object-oriented programming, and graphical user interfaces in the second year, to data and image analysis, data visualization, and machine learning in the third year.
Applied learning project
The specialization includes two projects. The first is the final project of the second year. It involves creating an object-oriented application with a graphical user interface that visualizes COVID-19-related data collected from around the world. The second project is part of the third year and is dedicated to image processing.
