How to Use This Site

This Course Information Directory is a relational database focused on syllabi information relevant to autodidact learners. It shows course descriptions, learning objectives, and reading materials while filtering out information primarily useful to formally enrolled students, such as grading and policies.

There are three main sections/views:

The Program List shows high-level curriculum structures.
The Courses List table is the main section. Hover your mouse and click “open” to see the relevant syllabi.
- Book readings are listed in the second column. Research papers are not included, as I’m considering using specialized tools like LitMap or Research Rabbit for that.
The Reading Table displays different types of readings.
The Keyword Section is largely a work in progress, as I aim to show how different programs approach similar topics.
Use the search tool in the top right corner to quickly find topics of interest.

Update Log

Acknowledgment:

The syllabi and course information mentioned below were collected online or sent to me directly.

A huge thanks to all the professors and lecturers who developed the curricula and wrote the syllabi. They laid the groundwork to make this initiative possible and deserve most of the credit. 🙌

I have simply brought together dispersed information, hoping to make it a bit easier to access.
