Open Yale Courses is a project of Yale University to share full video and course materials from its undergraduate courses.
Open Yale Courses provides free access to a selection of introductory courses.
Open Yale Courses launched in December 2007 with seven courses from various departments. The project now includes 42 courses from a broad range of introductory courses taught at Yale college. The initiative was funded by the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, which has supported other universities' OpenCourseWare projects.

Famous quotes containing the words open, yale and/or courses:
“A man’s most open actions have a secret side to them.”
—Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
“While it may not heighten our sympathy, wit widens our horizons by its flashes, revealing remote hidden affiliations and drawing laughter from far afield; humor, in contrast, strikes up fellow feeling, and though it does not leap so much across time and space, enriches our insight into the universal in familiar things, lending it a local habitation and a name.”
—Marie Collins Swabey. Comic Laughter, ch. 5, Yale University Press (1961)
“The inconveniences and horrors of the pox are perfectly well known to every one; but still the disease flourishes and spreads. Several million people were killed in a recent war and half the world ruined; but we all busily go on in courses that make another event of the same sort inevitable. Experientia docet? Experientia doesn’t.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
