Description
Welcome!
MATLAB for Engineering Students Part 2 is a continuation of my MATLAB for Engineering Students course. This class will enhance your MATLAB skills and allow you to write more efficient and complicated code. We will cover several different types of user defined functions, strings and math topics.
Here's what you'll learn:
User-defined functions with multiple outputs
Subfunctions
Persistent Variables
String concepts (concatenation, sprintf, eval & more)
Anonymous functions
Function functions & function handles
Variable input & variable output functions (varargin & varargout)
Polynomials
Curve fitting with polynomials
Symbolic expressions
Integration & differentiation
and more!
What you get when you enroll:
Downloadable slides and examples are provided in pdf form for each section
10 hours of on demand lecture videos
10 downloadable quizzes with video solutions in case you get stuck
This course assumes you have knowledge of the following MATLAB concepts:
Matrices
if Statements
Looping (for, nested, while)
2-D plotting
User-defined functions with one output
fprintf
load & save functions

Instructor
Hi!
I graduated from Auburn University with a M.S. and PhD in Aerospace Engineering. After graduation I began worked as a Systems Engineer at Lockheed Martin. After working in industry for 8 years I decided to focus on teaching full time.
I have 18+ years of teaching experience and have helped 1000's of students transform from freshmen to successful engineers. Some of the courses I teach include: Statics, Dynamics, Thermodynamics, MATLAB, Numerical Analysis, Controls, Fluid Mechanics and Solid Mechanics. I have taught at Auburn University, University of North Texas and Texas Christian University.
I believe in teaching my courses in a way that I wanted to be taught when I was in school...plenty of examples, not a lot of theory. Many instructors don't understand the learning needs of their students. They give complicated lectures full of theory but then hardly ever work out examples. The examples they do work tend to be simple or the examples already presented in the course textbook.
This is why I recently founded STEM Course Prep. STEM Course Prep is meant to help struggling students succeed before they have to drop or fail a class.
My courses have plenty of detailed examples with only the theory and derivations you really need. My current Udemy course offerings are MATLAB Parts 1 and 2, Numerical Analysis, Thermodynamics, Statics, Dynamics Parts 1 and 2, Fluid Mechanics Parts 1, 2 and 3, Controls, Orbital Mechanics and more.
If you like my Udemy courses you'll love the courses on my website STEM Course Prep. My courses offered there feature additional content, homework, exams etc. There are also courses like Mechanics of Materials and Intermediate Dynamics that are not found on Udemy.
Thanks for your interest!
