Top Business School to Add Bitcoin Classes and Expand Cryptocurrency in the Offering of MBA Courses

It has been reportedly said that the top-ranked business schools are hoping to bitcoin bandwagon as they are wanting to expand their course by offering on cryptocurrencies and blockchain.

There have been offers made for more crypto-related MBA classes which are eventually growing more in demand by the students, as well as, by the corporate sector employers and recruiters, which are especially a part of the capital venture.

Spoken by a professor from one of the top MBA universities that- “Kevin Werbach, a professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, will teach a class in the fall of 2018 called “Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, and Distributed Ledger Technology.”

Reported in a report by CNBC that a beef up is going to take place in the top-notch MBA colleges about keeping in demand for their cryptocurrency course as a part of the MBA programme of the university. It is been said reportedly that after five years down the lane most probably very few business colleges will be having different classes from other schools. Most of them would not be reporting similar classes and courses after some time span. 

Stanford University of Pennsylvania and Georgetown are going to be adding more classes of cryptocurrency to their MBA programme classes in 2018 which will help them to keep the demand up amongst their students. A review from a student stated that- “ Itamar Orr, a second-year MBA student at Stanford, applauded the expanded course offerings, saying it will help students once they go out into the workforce.”

Orr also added by saying that there are many students present in the university who wanted to discuss the jobs related to the blockchain and the crypto market. Also, there had been a competitive air in the campus which gives you an advantage and an extra hammer in your toolbox for grabbing marks. Approximately a Venture-capital investment had taken place which in the starting had ballooned up to $911 million, in the previous year, which was a higher percentage from 2016, according to a report from Pitchbook.

Susan Athey, a professor at the Stanford Business School said that-

“The fluctuations in the prices have everyone mesmerized: Just how did this happen? Many people have gone boom or bust. A that’s, of course, exciting, attracts a lot of interest, and motivates people to understand what’s going on.”
