These days, I am planning to start writing the first proposal for a PhD degree, so I looked at the academic programs of universities, and it is really bad. Some of the finer specializations and sub-disciplines are being taught at the bachelor’s or master’s level, so this kind of education will not change anything. If you teach students about Bitcoin and they have a certificate about Bitcoin, it will not change. One thing, students must include the basic concepts in economics, and Bitcoin is one of the solutions, but they must know how the economy works first.
very true. Strong foundational understanding on economics is the very important for students, before they can go into Bitcoin in full. If they lack this basic, they might get stranded along the line while trying to grasp everything concerning Bitcoin. In a more convenient manner, I think finer specialization on courses like Bitcoin should be at the PhD level, were all advanced and technicalities will be taught. issuing cert at the University level might just be enough.
