My friends over at minnov8 recently posted about Stanford's Educator's Corner. While I like Stanford's eCorner, I've always been much more thrilled about Stanford's free masters level engineering seminars. Many of these seminars don't require an engineering background, but do cover very important topics. For instance, did you know that you could be attending Stanford's European Entrepreneurship and Innovation Seminar? If you wanted to get an understanding of where it's happening ... and what's occurring in the high tech corridor's of Europe, you should be investing one hour per week in this seminar. The series started on April 6th and will finish up on June 1st with the topic of Innovation Models in Nordic Countries (the Northstar Nerd likes this topic ... I will let my Danish cousins know!). The primary speaker will be Lisa Waits, who is a director at Nokia's Research Center.
Now here's the trick ... you need to register via Stanford Online to get access. It's free. Once you register make certain you bookmark your access page. This url gives you access to all the seminars offered free each term which this Spring included:
- Bioengineering Departmental Research Colloquium
- Design and Manufacturing Forum
- Entrepreneurship in Asian High Tech Industries
- Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders' Seminar
- Human-Computer Interaction Seminar
- Lessons in Decision Making
- Materials Science Colloquium
- Seminar on Computer Systems
- Seminar in Guidance, Navigation, and Control
- Thought Leaders Seminar for European Entrepreneurship and Innovation
