Abstract: Introducing numerical simulation into college physical education that is favorable to the students＇ analyzing and understanding physical problems. Moreover, it is training the students to study physical problems in a deep-going way. According to the characteristic of the freshmen and sophomore, numerical simulation probing into the MAatlab in physics, could reduce programming intensity and spur students on to physical phenomenon and modeling. Offering the courses, ＂Matlab programming in physics＂ is to realize the expectations. Teaching reform of the course is studied in this paper.

Key words: numerical simulation, Matlab, teaching reform
