保加利亚瓦尔纳管理大学提供比特币奖学金

比特币进入主流金融世界并且价值已经创造了奇迹，但它的精神家园只存在于IT爱好者的头脑中。

走进任何一个开发工作室，你肯定会发现IT爱好者正在考虑区块链、比特币和所有与加密货币相关的东西。

考虑到这一点，保加利亚瓦尔纳管理大学将成为首批提供比特币奖学金的高等教育机构之一。

2018年，十名软件工程专业的学生将获得比特币奖学金——每学期价值1000欧元。大学也正在计划接受比特币作为学费的支付方式。

未来软件工程专业的学生也可以期待加密货币和区块链技术的新领域，因为该大学希望在区块链技术教育方面开创先河。

比特币助学金的推出是大学加密货币爱好者的萌芽社区的产物。 加密货币的每周研讨会带来了关于比特币助推器和区块链技术创新课程的想法。

助学金计划的启动只是大学对区块链技术追求的冰山一角。Ilyasli坚持认为，社区可以成为区块链和加密货币的教育中心。

“我们认为这个领域的先行者将会获得巨大的回报，所以我们希望个人、我们的组织和我们的国家成为区块链领域的先锋。这就是为什么我们还要求保加利亚政府和瓦尔纳地方当局把瓦尔纳变成一个中心。但是我们还没有得到当局的答复。”

世界上最有价值的加密货币和区块链技术课程的奖学金的设置，大学希望吸引世界各地的一些聪明的年轻人。

保加利亚大学提供完整的商业、软件学士和硕士学位以及MBA课程。

据Ilyasli说，希望申请比特币就职奖学金的学生必须达到正常的入学要求。

“选拔将由学术委员负责，将选择考虑对学科和技术、以及课外活动感兴趣的学生。但是，首先，所有考生都应该达到最低入学要求，如高中成绩和英语水平。”

Bitcoin’s ascension into the mainstream financial world has done wonders for its value, but its spiritual home still resides in the minds of IT aficionados.

Walk into any development studio and you are bound to find IT staff musing over Blockchain, Bitcoin and all things cryptocurrency related.

With that in mind, Varna University of Management in Bulgaria will become one of the first tertiary education institutions to offer bursaries in Bitcoin.

In 2018, ten software engineering students will be awarded scholarships in Bitcoin - to the value of €1000 per semester. The University will also give their candidates the option of taking the scholarship in either euros or Bitcoin.

While the lucky candidates will land themselves a share of the valuable virtual currency, the University is also working on plans to accept Bitcoin as a payment method for tuition fees.

Prospective software engineering students can also look forward to new modules in cryptocurrency and Blockchain technology, as the University looks to pioneer the way forward in education of Blockchain technology.

From humble beginnings

The launch of their Bitcoin bursaries is a product of the budding community of cryptocurrency enthusiasts at the University. Weekly seminars covering the world of cryptocurrencies led to the idea of Bitcoin bursaries and innovative courses on Blockchain technology.

Speaking to Cointelegraph, VUM digital marketing manager Omer Ilyasli said the student body is at the cutting edge of Blockchain development.

“At our School of Computer Science, we have number of students who are working on Blockchain technology. We have quite a community here and we host seminars from time to time. The decision to offer Bitcoin scholarship came after a "Introduction to Blockchain Technology" seminar.”

The launch of the bursary program is just the tip of the iceberg for the ambitious University. Ilyasli insists that the community could become an educational hub for Blockchain and cryptocurrencies.

“We think pioneers in this field will be hugely rewarded, so we want to be pioneers, both individuals, our organization and our country. That is why we also urged Bulgarian government and local authorities in Varna to turn Varna into a hub. We still did not get an answer from the authorities yet.”

With the prospect of a scholarship in the world's most valuable cryptocurrency and courses in Blockchain technology, the University hopes to attract some of the brightest young minds around the world.

The Bulgarian university offers full Bachelors and Masters degrees in business, software and hospitality, as well as an MBA programme.

Hopeful students looking to apply for their inaugural Bitcoin scholarships will have to meet normal entrance requirements, according to Ilyasli.

“The selection process will be done by academic commitee and they will select the students considering their interest in the subject and technology, and extra-curricular activities. But, first of all, all candidates should cover minimum entry requirements, such as high school grades and English-proficiency.”

Considering the Bulgarian government’s recent acquisition of Bitcoin through a criminal syndicate bust, the country could well be looking into developing the niche, but fast-growing industry.
