Free Video Lectures from universities, all Math and Physics courses

Click For Summary
Free video lectures from universities provide valuable resources for students in math and physics, with notable mentions including MIT, Yale, and Harvey Mudd College. Many users seek confirmation on course levels and content overlap, particularly for second-year physics and advanced topics like thermodynamics. The quality of video lectures varies, with some users finding Berkeley's offerings less satisfactory compared to others. Discussions highlight the effectiveness of platforms like Khan Academy for foundational learning, though some argue that college courses demand a deeper understanding and faster pace. Overall, the thread emphasizes the importance of shared resources and personal experiences in navigating online educational content.

I have not extensively read Landau/Lifgarbagez but the lectures seem to be at a similar level. If anything the lectures might be a bit less sophisticated, but by very little as far as I can tell.

Hey I'm working on the lectures and Landau's book right now. Lectures are very very good but still not on par with Landau in terms of rigor. That being said, the prof is wonderful and the depth probed by him during the lectures is at similar level to that of Landau's. I think Calkin's Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Mechanics supplement the lectures better than Landau.

I emailed MIT OCW and found out they have a full introductory quantum physics video course (8.04) that they're going to post some time in the not too distant future. Only the first video has been posted so far from that semester (but not at OCW yet)

I think Video lectures from HarveyMudd on true dissection are totally top rate, compared with any video lecture arrangement out there, including the stuff on MIT OCW. I also have viewed and preferred the whole series of lectures. They are focused around "the" content on true dissection (child rudin) and the addresses themselves are extremely decently arranged and conveyed.
