Introduction
The BS in Blockchain Technology (BCT) program aims to create, expand, disseminate, and teach the body of knowledge in blockchain and distributed ledger technologies through academic research, real-world applications, and initiatives that positively impact society at local, national, and international levels. The program is designed to develop a broad understanding of the principles and architecture of blockchain systems. It complements this foundation with in-depth knowledge of cryptographic techniques, consensus algorithms, decentralized applications (dApps), smart contracts, and secure data management.
The core objective of the blockchain discipline is to establish reliable, scalable, and transparent methods for decentralized data exchange and transaction processing. It aims to facilitate the development of secure, efficient, and cost-effective systems, while fostering trust and integrity in digital ecosystems. The BS-BCT program equips students with the tools and methodologies necessary to innovate across industries by leveraging the transformative potential of blockchain technology.
