  1. If you are using a concurrent license, download the concurrent license file from here (under "Concurrent Licenses") from within your VM using a web browser.  As instructed on the page in the link, rename the file so that its extension is .lic instead of .txt. The simplest way to get that file downloaded without changing the format is to "save as" from the browser, and make sure it saves as a text file. Copying and pasting it into a file can create a Rich Text file, which will not work.
  2. Navigate to the MathWorks website here using a web browser.  If you already have a MathWorks account log into it now.  If you do not, create one.  For more info on creating a Mathworks account, see the section entitled Creating a MathWorks Account above.
  3. Under My Software on your MathWorks account page, click the down arrow next to the row with license 650045 if you are using the concurrent license or next to the row corresponding to your standalone license if you are using the standalone licensing model.  This will take you to a page where you can select which version of MATLAB you'd like to download.  Download the installer for whichever version best suits your needs and operating system.
  4. Start the MATLAB installer.  It will begin by unzipping a number of temporary files.  Click Yes when prompted with "Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?"
  5. Select Log in with a MathWorks Account for a concurrent license.  For standalone licenses, select Use a File Installation Key.  Accept the licensing terms and click Next.

  6. For a concurrent license, select license 650045.  For a standalone license, enter the File Installation Key.  Click Next.

  7. Choose an installation folder for MATLAB when prompted.  Click Next.
  8. Select whichever toolboxes you'd like to install.  The toolboxes that Columbia has licensed are listed here.  Click Next.

  9. Add the path to the .lic file from step one when prompted for the license file location.  Click Next.

  10. Add shortcuts and provide feedback to MathWorks as desired.

  11. Click Install on the confirmation screen.
