For each mini case, students analyze the business model and entrepreneurial practices to determine which ones might apply to their own ventures. The FinTech Center works with entrepreneurship faculty and students to use technology-based innovation in their proposals.
Morgan State University offers a course entitled “Application Development” which teaches students how to use crypto-economics and blockchain development to invent applications using blockchain technology to find solutions to local problems.
