With the introduction of revolutionary MOOCs (Massive open online courses), access to free world class education has become very easy. People can learn from world class professors while sitting at home anywhere on the planet.
While MOOCs offers multitude to courses on different topics, in this blog I will be focussing on courses related to Mechanical engineering available on Edx.
