| Resources for Adult Learners |
|
Are you one of the 39 million people who started at a college or university but never got your degree? According to a recent article in the Chronicle of Higher Education, almost 1 million students who hadn’t gotten a degree, re-enrolled to finish their education in 2020-2021, despite (or maybe because of?) the pandemic. The idea of going back to school can be a daunting task for most working adults, who grapple with different kinds of financial and logistical hurdles than a typical undergraduate.
MIT OpenCourseWare has numerous resources to help you on your educational journey. All for free!
Video Lectures Check out our YouTube channel for thousands of educational videos from MIT professors and lecturers.
2,400+ courses Browse through materials that are part of over 2,400 courses in subjects ranging from STEM to sociology.
OCW Scholar Introductory courses in calculus, computer science, physics, economics, and chemistry that contain all the materials, including video lectures, to study the topic.
Free Textbooks
We offer a selection of textbooks that are free and openly available to you. |
