For the past 25 years, the MacVicar Faculty Fellows Program has honored several MIT professors each year who have made outstanding contributions to undergraduate teaching, educational innovation, and mentoring.
This year’s awardees are Professors Caspar Hare (philosophy), Scott A. Hughes (physics), and Maria Yang (mechanical engineering).
OCW is honored to share courses from two of this year’s Fellows.

It would be really nice if you can make the video lecture for 8.962 General Relativity available. Its not an easy subject and really requires an expert teacher emphasizing the key points and providing the right insights.
I hope to be a university student in this international university .. Look for science and work
