What are the best for-credit online CS classes?
I'm interested in taking some core CS classes online for university credit. I'd be prepared to spend up to $1000 for a great class that will be viewed well by potential employers (but Stanford's $6600 is too much). E.g. I see one can take math classes like Calc I & II at extension.berkeley.edu for $680; where is an analogous Data Structures and Algorithms for example?
Note that I want university credit, so I'm not currently considering things like the Princeton class offered via Coursera, for which no credit is available.
- swuecho 10y agoCalc I & II have nothing to do with Data Structures and Algorithms.
- Myrmornis 10y agoNot quite true; students often study some math along with some CS and those two classes are considered "core" classes in math and CS respectively. But yes, I know that the "analysis" side of math is not particularly close to CS. I give calc I and II as an example of an ostensibly high quality core math class that one can take for credit at an ostensibly high quality institution. My question is, where can I do core CS classes for credit, in the way that I can do core math classes at extension.berkeley.edu?

- argonaut 10y agoThe Berkeley extension classes you link to seem to be separate, not identical versions of the Berkeley courses, so I think there's a question mark with respect to whether they are quality courses.
