- krrishd 13y agoI'm going to be taking: Introduction to Databases: https://class.stanford.edu/courses/Engineering/db/2014_1/about https://class.stanford.edu/courses/Engineering/db/2014_1/abo... Internet History, Technology, and History: https://www.coursera.org/course/insidetheinternet https://www.coursera.org/course/insidetheinternet CS169x SaaS - https://www.edx.org/course/uc-berkeleyx/uc-berkeleyx-cs169-1x-engineering-1377 https://www.edx.org/course/uc-berkeleyx/uc-berkeleyx-cs169-1...
- xeloxus 13y agoI'm taking Stephen Boyd's Convex Optimization: https://class.stanford.edu/courses/Engineering/CVX101/Winter2014/about https://class.stanford.edu/courses/Engineering/CVX101/Winter... This class was one of the early courses with online videos and materials. I think this will be great if you are interested in learning about convex optimization in some detail. This class will be on Stanford's OpenEdx platform with new materials. Dan Boneh is teaching a two part sequence on cryptography: https://www.coursera.org/course/crypto1 https://www.coursera.org/course/crypto1 https://www.coursera.org/course/crypto2 https://www.coursera.org/course/crypto2 The practical exercises in part I worked through defects in the implementations of cryptographic protocols. If you want to really understand how some of the popular crypto algorithms work, these two courses will help you.
- nicholas73 13y agoI can't recommend enough Udacity's courses (or that it's good enough that I don't feel the need to check for substitutes). I'm planning on taking: Design of Everyday Objects Mobile Web Development Design of Computer Programs And maybe one big data topic.
