The rise of cryptocurrency in recent times has given special prominence tthe technology it uses: Blockchain. The Bitcoin cryptocurrency was the first tuse Blockchain. This technology allows for reliable time stamping and linking ta previous block and has become popular because it is especially suitable for storing time-ordered data incrementally, without the possibility of making modifying them. This approach has different features, such as data storage (achieved through the replication of blockchain information), data transmission (achieved through peer networks) and data confirmation (achieved through consensus algorithms between participating nodes).
The students whcomplete this master's degree will have many employment opportunities as the Blockchain concept and the associated technological paradigm continue tdevelop and professionals with this profile are in high demand. Students will learn about the technologies and computer models used in the framework of Smart Contracts, cryptocurrency, block chains, etc.
Master's Degree: Students wishing to pursue this Master's Degree must be in possession of an official Spanish university degree or another issued by a higher education institution in the European Higher Education Area. Likewise, university graduates from educational systems outside the European Higher Education Area may access without the need for homologation of their degrees. Instead, the degree's equivalence to the corresponding official Spanish university degree will be verified directly by the University of Salamanca.
Students with degrees obtained in universities not belonging to the European Higher Education Area must present a certificate from their university stating that the degree they have obtained allows them to access a postgraduate program.
Expert's Degree: is intended for people who meet the university entrance requirements (University entrance requirements are Higher Level Training Cycles (FP2), PAU or PAEG tests and entrance exams for those over 25 and over 45), but who do not have an academic degree.
