Open at MRU

Open Access, Open Data, and Open Educational Resources are all part of a movement to help equalize access to education and scholarship by fostering an inclusive way to create and disseminate knowledge.

Learn more about the scholars, students and community leaders advocating for equitable access to open education at MRU.

Open education is a way to access and contribute to barrier-free academic resources that cover all subject areas. Open resources remove boundaries from education when texts, videos, journals, articles and courses remain available to all learners.
