MIT OpenCourseWare (MIT OCW) makes the course materials that are used in the teaching of almost all MIT’s undergraduate and graduate subjects available on the Web, free of charge, to any user anywhere in the world. This initiative continues the tradition at MIT, and in American higher education, of open dissemination of educational materials, philosophy, and modes of thought. Through June 1, 2005, MIT OCW has published 1,100 courses.

Get the latest information from MIT OCW around the world and home in Cambridge -- from press releases, to links to worldwide media coverage, to thoughts on this exciting initiative from MIT President Charles M. Vest.
