AI Thread Summary
Coursera's transition to a subscription model has caused confusion regarding available courses. Users are encouraged to explore alternative educational resources like MIT OpenCourseWare and Khan Academy. For those interested in chemistry, specifically organic chemistry, full lecture videos can be found on YouTube by searching for "UC Irvine Organic Chemistry." Recommendations for quality content are preferred over general searches, highlighting the importance of curated educational resources. The discussion also touches on the relevance of organic chemistry to the energy transition, indicating a desire for knowledge in this area. The forum's atmosphere has been noted as more pleasant, particularly with a shift away from a younger demographic.

Coursera has gone subscription and I've lost track of what's available.

Mitopencourseware and khan academy type stuff
 
Physics news on Phys.org
As you have mentioned in the other thread about your interest in chemistry, you can get full lecture videos on youtube by searching "UC Irwin Organic Chemistry".
 
Recommendations are far superior to searching information swamps in my experience, so thanks, very sincerely.I suppose my interest is in the energy transition, organic chem is just a big gap I'm trying to fill. I realize it's a physics forum, never used to matter, didn't seem anyway. Pleasant without so many young 'uns anyway, like what you've done with the place on balance.

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...

Thread 'Tips for a CS and physics major'

Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
