Hi All, I'm the author of this list. My main motivation with this was to list down a few university courses that make their material available online for free. In contrast to MOOCs, I've found these university courses to be quite valuable especially if you're looking to dive deeper (lecture notes & readings) and/or like working at your own pace. Most of these courses have really interesting assignments which you can work on when you are between side-projects.

Thanks to the contributors, the list has become quite huge and I'm open to any ideas that might help users navigate this better. There was a recommendation[0] made to add emojis and I'm looking for feedback on how it could be done better. If any of you have suggestions, I'm all ears! Thanks!

Is it opened to non-american courses? It would be nice.

If you're referring to non-american universities, the list does contain a couple of courses offered by European universities. However, the list does not contain any non-English courses but if you do know of any, do send in a PR and I'll gladly add it to the list.

How about presenting all these in a web interface? Would make it easier to search and spot interesting courses. Could start an actual platform for this purpose.
