Library Courses

Overview

The CAETE Course Library offers access to over 100 University of Colorado graduate engineering and technology courses taught in previous semesters. These prerecorded courses are available online. Certain courses taught each semester are selected for inclusion in the Library. At the end of each semester, updated versions of courses replace previous versions, and new courses are added. Courses can be taken for credit, or purchased, and usually include a set of instructor digital handouts. Library courses are available in the disciplines of aerospace engineering, civil and environmental engineering, computer science, electrical and computer engineering, mechanical engineering, telecommunications, and engineering management. Additionally, a few courses in business and general technology are available.

Library Courses for Credit

To take a library course for credit, first obtain permission from the instructor. The student and instructor must arrange the schedule for homework assignments and exams. Students should confirm with the instructor any text and hardware/software requirements for the course. Next, a CAETE Registration form must be completed during the applicable registration period since these courses are semester-based. Access to courses is available 1 week before the start of the semester. Normal CAETE tuition applies. Register Now!

Please note, Interdisciplinary Telecommunications Program (ITP) students are not permitted to take library courses for credit.

Each Library course (except as otherwise noted) is equivalent to 3 credit hours (one semester). The amount of media for each course varies depending on how many times a week the course met during the semester and the length of each lecture. However, the total number of hours of material is approximately the same for each course (approximately 38 hours).
