Announcing:  A Course in Blockchain Fundamentals and Applications
 
The use of Blockchain technology is exploding, student awareness of it is escalating and demand from employers for blockchain skills is growing exponentially. Accepted wisdom is that, much like the Internet in the 1990s, it will become a critical technology platform that will underpin some of the most transformative and disruptive innovations from cryptocurrencies to contract law to privacy to cybersecurity. Students in business, technology, law, entrepreneurship and economics will assuredly encounter blockchain and its applications during their professional lifetimes. In the Fall of 2018 MSU will be offering a course in Blockchain Fundamentals and Applications. This comprehensive course covers both the technology behind blockchain (at a high level, for non-technical students) and the multiple opportunities for its application.
 
The course is open to all students, but a preference will be given to those students in the Minor in Entrepreneurship and Innovation. Students must complete an Expression of Interest Questionnaire before they can enroll. Further details, and a link to the questionnaire, can be found at:  https://entrepreneurship.msu.edu/course/blockchain/.
