   What is a MOOC?  
   A MOOC stands for Massive Open Online Course.  It is a free online course accessible to a large number of learners.
What are the Institut Pasteur MOOCs?  
After the free registration, you have access to expert videos, quizzes on these videos and a forum animated by a community manager.  In addition, a live session is organised to interact with the course directors and answer your questions. It is possible to take a final exam for a fee in order to obtain a certificate.
   Who are Institut Pasteur's MOOCs for?  
   Our MOOCs are open to all, free of charge. A bachelor's degree in biological sciences, medicine or an equivalent degree is strongly recommended.
