Was anybody on the last MOOC course number 7 that just finished?

Yes, it is the first and only University Degree on the topic.
It does demand a good foundation bachelor's degree, but it goes in great depth on everything we examine on the MOOC. Every weekly session of the MOOC becomes a fully fledged 6 weeks course that covers Finance, Banking, Regulation, Innovation and more. After the core studies, there are electives for those desiring a developer orientation : Cryptography, Distributed Systems, Programming Digital Currencies, etc
Here's a list of the full MSc curriculum :

The MOOC touches working with bitcoind and qt, but it is mostly geared towards a more spherical understanding of the core infrastructure and ecosystem, so it can be approached regardless of discipline.
The MSc itself has electives directed towards developers, including courses in:
- Cryptographic Systems Security
- Digital Currency Programming
- Distributed Systems
- Digital Currencies in Motion
You can find and overview of the individual courses here : http://digitalcurrency.unic.ac.cy/about-the-program/curriculum
