Earlier this week, I mentioned in a post that Yale University now offers free online courses… but they aren’t the only top-notch university taking this step. Next up, the University of Notre Dame.  Like Yale, Notre Dame’s free online courses offer no college credit, but they do provide open access to the materials used in Notre Dame classes.

Notre Dame’s free online courses are available in a over a dozen departments ranging from political science, peace studies, and philosophy to architecture, anthropology, and history.
