Speaking of their academic origins, deep learning is a subset of machine learning. It just also happens to be the most exciting and the one with the biggest publicity/results in recent years, so its often (mis)-labeled to describe the entire machine learning field. Andrew Ng's course still contains fundamental knowledge necessary to understand the motivations and reasoning behind deep learning (along with a lot of background ML knowledge that isn't needed), though, so I think its a good resource to link.
