How to make MATLAB for Mac running after closing the window?

In Mac OS X, closing a window does not necessarily exit a program, e.g. Microsoft Word. This could save a lot of time when you want to open another document after you close one, for some programs take a long time to launch.
MATLAB for Mac is one of those who take a long time to launch. Despite this, it exits right away after I close the window. Except for minimizing it, is there some way to keep it running by modifying the preference settings? I did not find this option in Preferences.
For those who did not interpret my question correctly, what I mean is not to keep a MATLAB shortcut in Dock.
I am using MATLAB R2014a in OS X El Capitan.

No, when the command window is closed (not just minimized) MATLAB will close completely.

This is coded inside the application and there is no user preference for it.
