Although more than 120 universities worldwide have expressed interest in collaborating with the service, edX will begin offering courses from three universities in fall 2012; the University of California—Berkeley being the third. “EdX will actively explore the addition of other institutions from around the world to the edX platform, and we look forward to adding more ‘X Universities’ as capacity increases,” according to the edX FAQ page. The not-for-profit service has announced seven course offerings thus far for its fall launch, ranging from computer science to chemistry to public health.
