Description |
Background and Motivation:
More and more companies are being attracted to the promising benefits of blockchain, such as greater transparency, enhanced security, improved traceability, increased efficiency and speed of transactions, and lower costs. Consequently, more and more companies are exploring innovative ways to disrupt and transform traditional business models around global supply chains, financial services, healthcare, government, and many other industries using blockchain.
This research seminar aims to enable students to learn more about blockchain technology. To this end, students gain practical insights into blockchain applications and acquire in-depth knowledge of their impact, associated organizational and business challenges, and potential limitations. However, students should not only gain practical insights but also act as researchers. By making their own informed observations as a researcher, students will deepen their own understanding of the topic and shed light on the unknown. To this end, students learn how to conduct research and write scientific papers. Besides, students also learn about classical and modern theories, concepts, and approaches to managing the development and use of blockchain-based innovations.
We are fortunate to have companies as partners for our research seminar that work with blockchain and are willing to provide insights into their specific use cases and blockchain applications.
Preparation and Introductory Session:
Since some students may not be familiar with blockchain technologies, we will provide initial input to facilitate a common understanding of the topic. For this purpose, we will provide background information in an introductory session and self-learning materials. The students will also get to know the partnering companies and their blockchain applications in the introductory session to prioritize/choose among the seminar topics and get a jump start on their master seminar project. The topics are then assigned to the students based on their prioritization and the capacity of the supervisors. Based on an initial meeting with the respective supervisor(s), students then prepare a proposal. Once the proposal is approved by their supervisor(s), the students begin their investigation. At the end of the seminar, the students will present and submit their seminar papers. |
