Bengaluru: RV University has partnered Social3, a decentralized Web3 hiring platform, to offer their 2nd year students a three-credit introductory blockchain course as part of RV University’s Fintech Minor. Upon completion of the course, students will have access to internship opportunities in the web3 space via Social3’s vast talent network, comprising 100+ companies.
Social3 is planning to partner with ten universities which will impact 10K+ students over the next 12-18 months in Karnataka thereby addressing the growing need for good talent in the Indian Web3 ecosystem.
The open-source curriculum includes topics such as digital money, cryptography, key public infrastructure development, smart contract development and building end-to-end Decentralized Applications (dApps). Students will have access to leading industry experts including senior developers, smart contract auditors, and founders from renowned crypto projects such as Polygon, Protocol Labs, TheGraph, Push among others. They will bring real-world insights and expertise relevant to the course content.
With an industry-level capstone project at the end, students will learn how to ship fully decentralized products, be early-stage contributors to other protocols, participate in R&D initiatives among other things
Structured with a focus on real-world applications, students will be able to build their own innovative projects on top of any blockchain of their choice or contribute to existing crypto protocols. They can enter the field of Web3 either as technical contributors where they can work with existing projects or as non-technical contributors who can help protocols grow by creating content, writing blogs, reaching users and partners, etc.
“At RV University, we pay special attention to industry collaboration. Learning skills in blockchain, Web3, and cryptocurrency is more important than ever as a variety of new and exciting job roles emerge in these fields. We are excited to partner with Social3 so that our students will be able to equip themselves with crucial skills to thrive in the dynamic blockchain industry,”said Dr. Mydhili K Nair Professor and Head B.Tech (H), School Of Computer Science & Engineering (SoCSE), RV University.
Founded by Sneha Mishra in 2022, Social3 is the first-ever decentralized Web3 based social hiring platform that incorporates a refer-&-earn model. The platform has seen over 5000 job applications, internships and in some cases, co-founders for their projects.
