Stanford Online is an educational initiative launched by Stanford University [1] which offers a variety of professional education opportunities. [2] It falls under the Stanford Center for Professional Development. In 2013, Stanford University created an open access OpenEdX platform which offered a variety of Massive Open Online Courses as part of Stanford Online. As of 2016, that site was not accessible. [3] Online classes previously offered on that platform can now be accessed on an updated platform known as edx [4] that offers a wide range of online courses covering many topics. [5] Some of the online classes offered by Stanford Online on this platform are available free of charge. Classes can be accessed from anywhere around the world. [6]
Although Stanford Online was founded in 1995 through the Stanford Center for Professional Development, [7] it has a history that spans back to the late 60's. [8] The start of the center began in part to the Engineering School within the University [8] which created the university's first TV network as a a new the digital medium for students to take professional online courses and earn academic certificates, undergraduate and graduate degrees. [9] Professor of computer science, Anoop Gupta invented the program that became integral to the formation of Stanford Online in 1996 [8] and the first full-length online course available offered a masters a degree in Electrical Engineering. [8]
Students that complete programs engage in self-reflection throughout the process in many aspects to meet their personal goals. [10] At Stanford Online, students are able to engage with Stanford coursework at their own pace. [11] Students have the opportunity to enroll in complete degree programs or gain knowledge by paying to watch individual lectures. There are 12 graduate programs currently offered. [12] The traditional Stanford University Campus application requirements and classes are consistent with the Stanford Online model. Regardless of location, any student is able to apply to Stanford Online. [13] Stanford Online reaches students across the world. [1] Enrolled students are able to receive academic support through Stanford Online in real-time from Stanford Faculty. Students are able to navigate the course sequentially with all of the necessary materials included in each module. [14] There are classes available from various colleges and departments within the University available online. [15] Stanford Online has several learning collaborations with third-party organizations to offer material tailored to students' needs. [16]
The availability of this learning format affects the financial state of Stanford in many ways. [14] Students not yet enrolled, can participate in free courses in preparation for college at their own will. [17] Students can also opt-in to receive premium services that in turn fund the University at large. [14] These free courses are taught by Stanford Faculty and allow faculty to educate the broader public in this non-traditional format. [17] The free courses offered have reached millions of people across the globe to date. [17] Stanford was the first to introduce learning programs offered virtually. The introduction of Stanford Online provides financial stability to the University. [14] Prices vary between degree programs. Some programs offered within Stanford Online charge reduced tuition rates if enrolled in as a group. [18] The difficulty of the various programs progressively increases depending on the category that the course falls within in accordance with Stanford's requirements. [9] Some of the degree programs offered online follow the same timeline as the degree program offered on the traditional campus. [13]
