I wish I was studying cryptology back in the day. A lot of big early investors were college students doing cryptologo that bought 5 dollars worth of 0.001 cent/btc or so...

The more people interested, the better. It's the only way we can keep improving.

Getting STEM students and economy students into Bitcoin should be fairly easy, the challenge is getting the rest interested at all.

These courses will have to be updated frequently.
Tough to keep abreast with courses on technology.

Good idea to promote to the young, the baby boomers dont get it and are more concerned with keeping the housing ponzi running to screw the rest of us.

I hope some students are going to come up with some ideas for improvement that we have never thought of until today. Assignments are a great way to get the heads cracking.

Interesting, just Princeton is unconnected to my local area educational institutions. When I scrape through this online course with success, grading even, what do I get as a certificate?
Something representable remaining?

Hmm.. sound weird (but great!) to heard it was overbooked last year. Well, I wont take the course if it is offline. However, if it is online course.. it is going to be awesome! cdcoin3, are you one of the student?

It's nice to see that new students there will be learning about Bitcoin
Given it as a free option as well to sweeten the deal.

Sounds great, I just hope lots of smart folks sign up and actually end up applying those skills to enrich the ecosystem

Hopefully, we get plenty of allegedly smart students doing great term projects on related subject matter assuming more than just a half-dozen take the class. All said, the more studying and research on the matter is only going to be more helpful going forward. Hope some of these folks find their way here during their homework assignments.
