Domestic MOOC provider - Universarium

In one of the comments I saw a link to the Universarium , I went in and was surprised that there were no announcements and PR at the habr, because the project is useful and ambitious.


At the moment, announced 3 courses and 3 more on the way. Judging by the wiki by the summer, we can expect the library to grow to 20 courses.
One of the courses will be especially interesting for the habrovans. Announcements of courses under the cut.

Graphs and combinatorics: from the pearls of theory to modern applications
')


About the course:
Graph theory is a science rich in exceptionally beautiful tasks, the statements of which are understandable to the student. However, many of these tasks are extremely difficult and not even solved so far. At the same time, graph theory is not only a collection of bright questions and facts - “pearls” - it is a powerful modern branch of mathematics with its own non-trivial methods and, of course, numerous applications. We will build the course as follows. First we introduce the main objects of graph theory and tell about several of its pearls. Then we give an idea of ​​the role of the probabilistic method in graph theory. And finally, we will talk about random graph models that adequately describe certain aspects of reality. In particular, we will talk about the models of the Internet and other "real" networks.

Search and selection of business ideas



About the course:
"If a person has brains, he simply does not have the moral right to work not for himself, giving most of his time and the results of his achievements to his employer" - these words belong to Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, a 29-year-old billionaire who started to create his business still at university. The modern world offers young talents a lot of ideas for business. There are only two minor problems: how to catch the idea and how to implement it? Yuri Mitin and Mikhail Khomich - entrepreneurs and teachers of the best business schools in the country - will help you find solutions. After listening to their course of lectures, you will learn how to come up with and properly evaluate a business idea, choose the right strategy, develop a business model, manage a team, and finally - attract investment.

Chemistry - useful and useless



About the course:
“There are too many people around who make money on the ignorance of those who did not bother to learn chemistry,” one professor answered the question of his student: “Why do I need chemistry in real life if I don’t want to be a chemist?”
Chemistry - one of the basic sciences, which answers the question "How is everything arranged?"
Chemistry is the food you eat, the fluids you drink, the air you breathe. These are your medicines, toothpaste and dishwashing detergent.
Chemistry in us and around us.
So if you lost interest in this science right after you did not find an element of surprise in the Periodic Table, this course is for you.
Professors of the Faculty of Chemistry of Moscow State University Vadim Eremin and Yuri Slovokhotov, as well as Ekaterina Lokteva, Doctor of Chemical Sciences of Moscow State University, will tell you what chemistry is doing and how it improves our living conditions. You will learn how water works and what the “thermal death” of the Universe is. You will be told what is common between diamond, aspirin and chocolate, and how drugs are made. And finally - did you know that life on earth exists thanks to hydrogen bonds?
Be sure to find out!
