Participating in MIT OpenCourseWare


MIT OpenCourseWare 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. MIT OpenCourseWare is a large-scale, Web-based publication of MIT course materials, and is not a degree-granting or credit-bearing initiative.

MIT faculty share a passion for teaching and contributing to their field of study. The MIT OpenCourseWare staff strive to support the MIT faculty by:

  • Helping faculty put their course materials online for teaching
  • Providing a vehicle for faculty to share their ideas and contribute to their discipline
