First version of MOOC

The multidisciplinary background of the participants as well as the critical mass of the participating graduate students are going to be capitalized by creating a massive online open course (MOOC) on 5G wireless networks. This will be the first version of MOOC developed in the project.

Second version of MOOC

Based on the feedback and newly obtained results within the project MOOC will be updated and a second version will be prepared.

Final version of MOOC

Based on the feedback and the overall results of the project a final version of MOOC will be prepared.
