When it comes to getting an education you shouldn't do things by halves; but what about doing it by nano-measurements? Online learning platform Udacity is soon to introduce a new concept in MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) with 'nanodegrees'. In conjunction with several tech companies including AT&T, Salesforce and Cloudera there will soon be what Udacity describes as a "new kind of compact, hands-on, and flexible online curriculum" with modules aimed at app developers, data analysts and other tech professionals. To kick off the concept AT&T is offering 100 internships to graduates of these programme udacity.com/nanodegrees
