Title: [2016-01-08] Stanford Bitcoin Engineering MOOC Proposed
Post by: hendra147 on January 08, 2016, 02:50:27 PM
A new lab course on building Bitcoin-enabled applications has just started at Stanford. It has attracted a good deal of interest which had led to the idea of producing a MOOC version if there's sufficient demand.

The syllabus for Bitcoin Engineering (CS251P) reveals that it a fast-paced, hands-on course that requires a background in Python in a Unix environment.

Nice to see bitcoin courses gain traction on campuses. One of the faculty for this course is Balaji Srinivasan, the co-founder and CEO of 21. So this course will definitely be a hands-on course.
