Warning! Regarding the Discontinuation of MATLAB Concurrent Licensing
MathWorks, the MATLAB software provider, has announced that the Concurrent (Network) licensing model for MATLAB software will be discontinued by the end of 2025. Therefore, as of the beginning of 2026, it will no longer be possible to use Concurrent licenses on laboratory computers or personal office computers within the scope of the MATLAB Campus License provided by our university. To avoid any interruptions or access issues in the use of MATLAB software, all computers currently using Concurrent licenses must be converted to the Individual license model.
