Ask HN: What are the good online maths university programs

21 pointsby tjomkabout 5 years ago
About 10 years ago I graduated with master's in CS but haven't been using maths a lot, and want to catch up on that. I do not need a university diploma, but I was still thinking about enrolling because of the structured program. Are there any online alternatives to that, free or not, that I could do during the quarantine?

In &quot;Learn X the hard way&quot; style, I&#x27;m planning to refresh my maths degree fundamentals by working through some of the Cambridge Tripos material at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.maths.cam.ac.uk&#x2F;undergrad&#x2F;studentreps&#x2F;tripos-specific-resources" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.maths.cam.ac.uk&#x2F;undergrad&#x2F;studentreps&#x2F;tripos-spe...</a><p>(particularly the Dexter Chua notes). This may be too hard without tutor support, but I figure I can always find easier material if it gets too tough.

I&#x27;m not sure what you want to learn but I found MIT to be very helpful when doing my engineering degree. I find the lectures in my own university hard to follow and wanted to look for more resources. I found that MIT had amazing lecturers that took difficult topics and explained them simply. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ocw.mit.edu&#x2F;courses&#x2F;find-by-topic&#x2F;#cat=mathematics" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;ocw.mit.edu&#x2F;courses&#x2F;find-by-topic&#x2F;#cat=mathematics</a>

When you say catch up on do you mean you want to review what you’ve already learned or you actually want to catch up with the literature in what used to be your field?<p>If the former, I don’t see why you would go through a structured programme again, you already know what the knowledge tree looks like and you can google for the best textbooks or youtube videos for each topic or course.
