Online courses on the resume (MOOCs)

I am graduating with an MSc in Financial Engineering and I took extra computer science online courses (statistical learning, algorithms) offered from Stanford (no credit). Curious whether I should leave them on the resume and how this could be perceived by the recruiting manager of a quant fund.

Representation in the cv as following:

Stanford University, MOOC Offering ..................................................................................................... Online Courses: Statistical Learning, Algorithms: Design and Analysis, Convex Optimizations

Would be really grateful for your opinions and perspectives, guys. Thank you.
