NTU is proud to offer one of the most popular online learning programs on the world's largest Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) education platform, Coursera. Recent Coursera statistics reveal that the four most popular Chinese-language courses on Coursera are all NTU courses. Coursera partners with top universities and organizations worldwide to offer free online courses for anyone to take.
NTU's popularity on Coursera reflects the university's prominence among Chinese-speaking populations, and is all the more telling as the participation of top-ranking universities such as China's Peking University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Fudan University has rapidly expanded Coursera's offering of Chinese-language courses.
Our top-ranking Coursera courses include: "Ancient Chinese History and Historical Characters: Qin Shi Huang" (total enrollment: 38,000; enrollment from China: 29,000); "Probability" (total enrollment: 28,800; enrollment from China: 18,500); "The Red Chamber Dream" (total enrollment: 19,000; enrollment from China: 14,800) and "Shi-ji (1)" (total enrollment: 17,900; enrollment from China: 13,500). |
