I am trying to call matlab functions from python. According to the instructions given in this link for installing the matlab engine module http://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2014b/matlab/matlab_external/install-the-matlab-engine-for-python.htmll, I should have a folder called engines in the extern folder. However my extern doesnt contain this folder. I am using matlab R2014 which according to the release notes contains support for this task

My first guess would be that you are looking in the extern folder from an older version of MATLAB. What value did you use for matlabroot?
I'm on a mac. In my case, matlabroot is " /Applications/MATLAB_2014b.app/ "
$ ls /Applications/MATLAB_R2014b.app/extern/
engines examples include lib
If I look in the extern folder from an older version, then the engines folder isn't available.
$ ls /Applications/MATLAB_R2013b.app/extern/
examples include lib

RD, sorry, the Python interface you are trying to use was added in the "b" release and you have the earlier "a" release. See http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/release-notes.html#R2014b
