Tufts University
Tufts University and MIT jointly offers the world free access to certain course content online. Much of the course materials of the open courseware (OCW) are from the health sciences schools is housed in the Tufts University Sciences Knowledgebase (TUSK). While Tufts OCW faculty pride themselves on providing the most comprehensive course content possible, in some cases the full complement of OCW course materials may not appear online due to copyright and other intellectual property issues. This is particularly true of health sciences courses where professors often draw on a wealth of sources, making it difficult to gain all the approvals and releases needed to include everything in a publicly available site.
However, users should find bibliographies and syllabi a fertile resource for information.
