A Universidade de Harvard, localizada em Cambridge, Massachusetts (EUA), foi estabelecida em 1636 e é a instituição de ensino superior mais antiga dos Estados Unidos. Ao longo de sua história, mais de 360.000 alunos passaram por suas salas de aula, incluindo ex-presidentes americanos como John Kennedy, George W. Bush e Barack Obama.
Além de seus cursos de graduação altamente conceituados, Harvard também oferece uma ampla gama de cursos gratuitos online que podem ser acessados de qualquer lugar do mundo, inclusive do Brasil.
Os cursos gratuitos oferecidos pela universidade são divididos em 11 áreas, incluindo Artes e Design, Negócios e Gestão, Ciência da Computação, Ciência de Dados, Ciência e Engenharia, Ciências Sociais, Desenvolvimento Educacional e Organizacional, Humanidades, Matemática e Análise de Dados, Medicina e Saúde Pública e Programação.
Embora a maioria dos cursos seja ministrada em inglês, alguns deles possuem legendas em português para facilitar o aprendizado.
Inscrições
Os cursos estão disponíveis na plataforma HarvardX. Os interessados podem acessar o site www.edx.org/school e conferir a lista com mais de 100 capacitações que podem ser realizados gratuitamente. No entanto, em algumas delas, o estudante terá que pagar uma taxa para receber o certificado de conclusão.
A maioria dos cursos é no formato “self-paced”, ou seja, eles podem ser realizados no ritmo da preferência do estudante. Contudo, alguns têm datas específicas de início e término, e exigem um acompanhamento do aluno em determinadas horas e dias.
Para se inscrever nos cursos online gratuitos da Universidade da Harvard, é necessário fazer o cadastro na plataforma HarvardX ou entrar com sua conta do Facebook, Google ou Hotmail, escolher a capacitação desejada e preenche os dados solicitados para ter acesso às aulas.
É só aproveitar a oportunidade para dar um ‘up grade’ no currículo.
