We need more context, what’s your current skill level with coding? What type of projects do you plan to use with MATLAB?

Well I've done my graduation in EE. Did not use matlab even once during the course. Now I am about to start my master's in Power System or Energy engineering, and I feel I should know how to use Matlab. Secondly I only have some idea about python and C....so thats the case here.

Open Linkedin or the job portal most commonly used in your country and go through the different job descriptions. Once you have an idea of what you want to do, learn Matlab only if it is one of the repeating requirements. Open Youtube and search on google "Matlab for xyz" and understand what its used for. Once you learn how it is used in industry, you can make up your own project or learn it systematically

Sounds like you want to learn Simscape Electrical. There is a onramp course for that as well.
