The University of Edinburgh will become the first major Scottish university to offer a blockchain development course later this year. The blockchains and distributed ledgers course will teach students how to build their own blockchain and be targeted at fourth year undergraduates and first year master's students. The European university has already established a blockchain technology laboratory. In the US Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley have both already launched bitcoin courses, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is planning on adding one soon.
