# MATLAB Jobs

In order to run MATLAB on Monsoon, some specific job parameters are recommended. An example job script for running a non-interactive/non-gui MATLAB file would look like:

```bash
#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --job-name=myjob1                    # name of your job within Monsoon
#SBATCH --chdir=/scratch/NAUID               # your work directory
#SBATCH --output=/scratch/NAUID/output.txt   # target for text output/errors
#SBATCH --time=20:00                         # 20 min (max run time)
#SBATCH --mem=2000                           # 2000 megabytes (max available mem)

module load matlab
srun matlab -nodisplay -nodesktop -r "run /scratch/NAUID/myjob1.m"
```
