About Coursera
Coursera began when two Stanford University computer science professors decided to put their courses online for the general public. Excited by their success, they created Coursera in partnership with a number of prestigious universities. Coursera now offers academic degrees as well as professional certificates in technology and related areas. Most courses last four to 10 weeks, with an hour or two of lectures per week. Students who choose to pay tuition will have quizzes, homework exercises and exams and will earn a certificate upon completion. Over 49 million people around the world have taken Coursera courses.
