To resolve this problem, open a Terminal window and use the commands below depending on your OS architecture:
For 64-bit Ubuntu:
sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 /lib64/libc.so.6
For 32-bit Ubuntu:
sudo ln -s /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 /lib/libc.so.6
For using the Student Version on 64-bit:
sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 /lib
Afterwards try starting MATLAB again.
