EDINBURGH has become the first university in the UK to join a consortium which provides free online access to undergraduate-level courses.
Established in 2011 by senior academics at Stanford University in California, the Coursera consortium is designed to provide online university courses to anyone who wishes to access them. Courses are available to people irrespective of their location or their previous qualifications.
