What is the true syntax for export_fig in order to save in a specific folder?

I read almost everywhere of 3rd party Matlab function namely export_fig (downloaded from FEX) documentation But, I don't know how I can save the exported figure in a specific folder like this address: 'F:\university\matlab\'. The documentation says: "filename - string containing the name (optionally including full or relative path) of the file the figure is to be saved as. If a path is not specified, the figure is saved in the current directory" So I did some tries but failed.

Here is my code:

export_fig('filename',num2str(k),  '-dpng', '-transparent', '-r300')

I tried all of this:

export_fig('F:\university\matlab\project\filename',num2str(k), '-dpng', '-transparent', '-r300');
% and
export_fig('F:\university\matlab\project\',num2str(k), '-dpng', '-transparent', '-r300');
% and
export_fig('F:\university\matlab\project\','filename',num2str(k), '-dpng', '-transparent', '-r300');

Although I got no error and code runs successfully but it saves in the current folder not in F:\university\matlab\

Does anyone know what is the problem?

Thank you

The complete path and filename should be one input.

export_fig(['F:\university\matlab\project\filename',num2str(k)], '-dpng', '-transparent', '-r300');
          %^ bracket                                          ^

Thanks a lot. After adding brackets it works very well.
