China will bring up the Blockchain Engineering Bachelor.

[xiboothrezi]

Why is the scientific specialization of the certificate in engineering aspects?software or computer engineering? I used to think that Blockchain is more related/linked to economic aspects and has more benefits for financial systems compared to engineering development?
Even I have seen many scientific courses that link Blockchain and financial aspects, or it is about algorithms and programming languages?
In general, the trend is good, it seems that the job market has forced universities to add more relatively modern engineering sciences.

This niche does cover quite a broad aspect, I mean it can be connected anywhere depending on which scientific side you want to specify. From the engineering side, it could be about ways to manage the blockchain, and later it can be linked to economic education for its application.

This is an effective step, especially since China has a large population and is quite influential in the crypto world. IMO, it looks like this will soon be followed by other institutions.

That is actually a good news. Just one (not so well known university) has decided to bring in a bachelors degree on blockchain. So I guess other universities will follow the footstep and well known universities will also start including blockchain as a recognized field of education. Since the government and Chinese ministry of education has approved this, the universities will add it as soon as possible. At this least this shows that China is serious about blockchain and might want to one day dominate this field.

This is a very serious step for the development of cryptocurrency in this country, and I believe that other countries should also train specialists in the field of blockchain, since digital technologies are our future and the more seriously our government takes new technologies, the faster our society will develop

According to a March 4 report by ChinaNews, the second-largest state-owned news agency in China, Chengdu Information Engineering University will offer majors in Blockchain Engineering alongside other tech-based degrees in 2020.

Its what had been said so in some news. If they didn't go beyond communism, they wouldn't have the wealth they now enjoy. 

Decades of becoming a communist, now had become one of the progressive country that they patented thousands of blockchain of god knows what ever that is. Their government found out the first that its useful to survey their people using blockchain.

This just means that china is serious and really interested in the blockchain technology and want to apply to its people. This is a bold move, after all, china always leads when it comes to technology, it only matters of how it will be used by their government.

But there are rumors before that China is against the use of Bitcoin and they want to create their own, and right now I'm not updated about it if it is true.

Their government is against it and they want to make one where people will invest to it and it will grow their economy which is a good move if many people invest on it. A country who engaged in Blockchain Technology will really achieve faster and immediate development in their economy and businesses that will help them to grow more as nation.

They only against bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies that they don't control, as we all knew that their government wants to control everything on their country. And their behaviour towards blockchain tech is different from the former, they even built some projects related to blockchain and advancing building blockchain related projects. And making its own cryptocurrency is likely to happen in the future

This has a good impact, the crypto industry has opened the minds of developed world countries. Awareness of the benefits and the future through technological changes in the era of cryptography is something that is very much needed. As a big country and the resources are there, I think this is normal. China and several countries have realized this opportunity so they opened up education about blockchain. I hope that there will be a fundamental impact on the development of bitcoin in the future.

Do you seriously think that the Chinese government is implementing the blockchain technology and planning to come up with their own version of digital currency to be progressive, they are implementing to have more control over their citizen to monitor each and every transaction.

In short it is their way of having more control over the economy and to monitor every transaction and to have to foothold in the cryptocurrency space.

I'm not sure that's a good degree to hold by itself. Some kind of specialization atop computer engineering/programming, yes, but knowing everything about blockchain but nothing outside of it seems pretty useless.
