FREE UNIVERSITY

This blog is being developed for The Free University - a new initiative designed to enable students to learn from the best academics in the world for free... There is plenty of free content around, but it is not really the content that makes a great university - it is the quality of its academics. What matters is the time that great researchers spend with students, inspiring them, challenging them, encouraging them in their turn to push the boundaries of knowledge forward. Although The Free University does indeed provide links to free content and courses, where it differs from all other similar initiatives is that it intends to bring some of the world's leading academics together with groups of students, enabling them to craft exciting new ideas together.
