The Massachusetts Institute of Technology has posted the bulk of its curriculum online for all to download! For those enrolled in for-profit "schools", please mention this to your admin. :lol:

Unlocking Knowledge, Empowering Minds.
Free lecture notes, exams, and videos from MIT. No registration required.

MIT OpenCourseWare (OCW) is a web-based publication of virtually all MIT course content. OCW is open and available to the world and is a permanent MIT activity.

What is MIT OpenCourseWare?
MIT OpenCourseWare is a free publication of MIT course materials that reflects almost all the undergraduate and graduate subjects taught at MIT.

•OCW is not an MIT education.
•OCW does not grant degrees or certificates.
•OCW does not provide access to MIT faculty.
•Materials may not reflect entire content of the course.

The only real students attending ITT Tech are the ones that shouldn't be there.

Title: For Exposure, Universities Put Courses on the Web
Date: November 1, 2010
Author: D.D. GUTTENPLAN

M.I.T.’s announcement in 2001 that it was going to put its entire course catalog online gave a jump-start to what has now become a global Open Educational Resources Movement whose goal, said Susan D’Antoni of Athabasca University, in Canada, is “to try to share the world’s knowledge.”

I'd recommend to anyone who was in CEET to check out MIT Physics I, Physics II, 6.002 Circuits and Electronic, Linear Algebra. True you still have an ITT degree but employers recognize someone who knows their stuff. also, for a basic electronics review checkout UCANDO video series on electronics Anyone who needs help with math check out http://www.mathtutordvd.com We got screwed by ITT but don't screw yourself by not taking the initiative to learn on your own

While students at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology pay thousands of dollars for courses, the university will announce a new program on Monday allowing anyone anywhere to take M.I.T. courses online free of charge — and for the first time earn official certificates for demonstrating mastery of the subjects taught.
