The History of the World since 1300, Computer Architecture, and and Statistics One are just some of the Princeton University courses you can take without ever applying to Princeton, paying tuition or even stepping on to the campus, thanks to a new partnership between the school and a new online education organization founded by two Stanford University professors. As part of efforts to use technology to enhance the Princeton academic experience and enable faculty to extend their teaching beyond the physical borders of the campus, the University is exploring the development of online class materials through the new education platform Coursera. Princeton will join Stanford University, the University of Michigan and the University of Pennsylvania in developing web-based course materials covering a variety of academic fields.
