A Transformational Approach

We’ve partnered with Coursera, an online program manager (OPM), to bring the MAS-E program to you. Coursera powers the learning platform where you’ll access your courses, provides technical support, supports marketing and outreach efforts, and offers student services and program management to help keep everything running smoothly. UC Berkeley and our faculty are responsible for the academic experience — from creating accessible course content and leading instruction to handling grading, assessments, admissions, and issuing official credentials and transcripts. We’re also committed to providing student services and ensuring accessibility accommodations are available when needed.

In short: Coursera keeps the platform humming, and Berkeley brings the world-class education.
