Virtual Mises University, Austrian Economics from the Source

Want to learn about free market Austrian economics from the source? The 2012 Mises University conference will be running the week of 22 July and is only $20.

Over the course of 27 years, Mises Institute scholars have crafted and perfected a world-class week-long intensive program in Austrian economics: Mises University. This program has changed the lives of thousands of undergraduate students. Now, thanks to the support of our generous donors, it can change your life too, even if you cannot make it to Auburn. You can enroll in Virtual Mises University, and partake in the intellectual feast over the internet.
Virtual Mises University offers live broadcasts throughout each day of the conference of all the core Mises University lectures.  But you DON’T have to be available during the broadcast times to take the course. Video recordings of the core lectures, and audio recordings of all the lectures will also be posted to the course page afterward, and will remain available long after the course is over. The course provides all of the readings that are required for the on-site attendees, as well as dedicated social and academic forums for students to discuss what they are learning and network with others who share their passion.
The online course also provides digital copies of any lecture materials (powerpoints, handouts, etc.) used by professors during their presentation.
Students who post in the course academic forum at least 10 times will be able to download a Certificate of Participation.
We are very excited to be able to offer this unmatched educational experience to anyone in the world, without being limited by physical space or geographic proximity.
Thanks to our generous donors, we are able to provide unlimited access to Virtual Mises University for only $20!
