Why we included this project

This is a curated list of free university courses that together cover roughly what an undergraduate computer science degree teaches, minus the general education requirements. The courses come from schools like MIT, Stanford, Princeton, and Harvard, and each entry spells out the school, duration, weekly time commitment, how often it runs, and prerequisites, so you can judge whether a self-study pace is realistic before you commit. The material is grouped into the core areas a degree would cover, including programming, math, systems, theory, and applications, which makes it a useful map for career changers, self-taught developers, and students filling gaps in formal training. It is a planning reference rather than software you run, and a good place to start when you want to build your own learning path.
