Program Overview

Blockchain is an emerging technology that enables the transfer and storage of information in a secure and fast way. It has revolutionized every industry and managerial function, redefining the ways we do business, exchange ideas, and manage workflows.

Currently, there has been a significant rise in demand for blockchain developers in the market. Glassdoor reported a 300% increase in blockchain-related jobs in 2019 over the previous year. However, there has also been a lack of technical skills and talent in blockchain development - creating a pressing need for hands-on educational programs.

The Blockchain Technology Program introduces students to the concepts, tools, and development of blockchain technology, providing practical knowledge of blockchain fundamentals, smart contracts, and decentralized applications.
