What if you could have free access to countless classes on topics from A to Z, just by connecting to the internet? OpenCourseWare makes that a reality by publishing high-quality college materials online.

OpenCourseWare’s free online college courses gained popularity after the Massachusetts Institute of Technology launched the program in 2002. MIT wanted to “enhance human learning worldwide by the availability of a web of knowledge.” They also thought that along with providing valuable free classes online, students would be better prepared for coursework in the actual classroom.
