Title: Will Master/Bachelor of Digital Currency Be A Popular Program?
Post by: Huobi-USD on August 18, 2015, 10:58:15 AM
Bitcoin/Digital Currency related academic program are quite seldom so far.
University of Nicosia claims to offer the world's first master's degree in digital currency.
Will you consider furthering your education in digital currency area? Will it be a popular major in the near future?

I believe it will be popular, yes.

If one believe's in Bitcoin, then one must believe in courses like this.
If Bitcoin is the future of money, then courses like this is a must for anyone who wants a career in the field.

I think classes such as these will be more common place in 5-10 years time for the younger generation as the future will no doubt be digital currency.

Sounds great, it will make digital currency become more popular and make people get interested about that. But I guess there will be many more altcoins that be made by graduate one from there, even they would make 'other bitcoin'.

I don't think that there is a point  in masters degree in digital currency, a degree in CS would be more useful. You could take digital currency classes and major in Computer Science. A degree  in digital currency could be an option  in 5 or 10 years.

So do you think a master's degree in computer science will offer wider choices for career path rather than just focusing on digital currency?

What do you think you'd study in such program like that?
How to use, get, make digital currencies?
In the end what will matter is how much money you've got and I think such degree would be worthless.

If you get a masters degree in computer science, you will get more paths for your career in digital currency and the others computer science related subjects. But, if you just focus on specific thing like digital currency, then you only have your career path on that, and get little chance to work on non digital currency company.
