The Rise Of Blockchain Courses
Universities around the world are increasingly including blockchain technology as part of their offerings. In October, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania launched a six-week Economics of Blockchain and Digital Assets Executive Education Online Program. In line with the ethos of the course, the school went ahead to become the first Ivy League School to allow students to pay their fees via cryptocurrencies.
Current SEC Chair, Gary Gensler once taught a blockchain course at MIT made up of 23 lectures. Titled Blockchain and Money, the course was designed for “students wishing to explore blockchain technology’s potential use – by entrepreneurs and incumbents – to change the world of money and finance.”
The course goes over the fundamentals of blockchain technology before building up on the potential use cases and application in the financial sector. The course has since been made available to the public on youtube.
