Course Summary

Global organisations operating in the Banking, Financial Services and Insurance (BFSI) sector have started embracing Blockchain extensively in the recent years. The shortage of talent in blockchain technology has paved the way for blockchain developers to be in a position to claim a better remuneration package in the industry, at par with developers in other technologies with fewer years of experience.

As per a NASSCOM report, the demand for Blockchain talent in India is growing at over 40% per quarter.

Ethereum and Smart Contracts - DApps Development is a course that provides a foundation in the general and advanced concepts related to blockchain, cryptography, smart contracts, and developer tools, particularly with regards to the ethereum platform. The course is designed as per the latest industry trends and equips students with the knowledge and skills that enable them to develop smart contracts (deterministic programs) and decentralized applications (DApps). Application of blockchain to different industry challenges and use cases will demonstrate the practical and exponential potential of this exciting technology to create value.

Hands-On

A virtual hands-on environment is integrated within the course.

Students will have to leverage this environment to complete the industry assignment as well as to complete the Part B section of the summative assessment.
