What are the best online, college-level mathematics courses?

There is something which very few people know about. The Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics at Trieste, Italy has a one year Diploma programme with courses which are somewhere in between the undergraduate and graduate curriculum in most US universities. The good thing is that, the lectures of many years are available online here: EyA Recordings of the ICTP Postgraduate Diploma Programme and the quality of recordings and voice is not bad. Some courses like Dynamical Systems, Differential Geometry, PDEs are really very good and must be given a shot it.
AdditionallyMIT OCW has a huge collection of undergraduate and graduate level courses in mathematics (and other subjects as well) which includes audio/video lectures, lecture notes, textbooks, assignments, exams and other interactive stuff etc.

Besides that there are a bunch of other online resources listed below:
  • Ted Chinburg's Lectures on Algebraic Number Theory
