What Is Ontology’s Global University Workshop?

As you may have seen, Ontology’s Global University Workshop tour has begun, starting in Seoul, South Korea at Seoul National Univerity. With the tour being the biggest of its kind and 81 universities around the world signed up, we’re excited to support students as they begin their blockchain journey. During the workshops, we aim to uncover the magic behind blockchain, teach attendees the keys to designing applications for business purposes, and identify the opportunities which will be available post-transformation. Furthermore, participants will see how blockchain technology can transform traditional industries in the flesh.

Now, we understand that it would be impossible to visit every university in the world but we are determined to make our Global University Workshop as inclusive as possible. That’s why we have created an online course to complement our offline workshops. By doing this, we hope to encourage budding blockchain enthusiasts no matter where they are.

What You Will Learn

Made up of 29 lessons and a total of 5 hours worth of content, the Global University Workshop online course will focus on the following topics:

  1. Final Web
    By the end of this workshop, students will understand the basics of blockchain, be able to identify business opportunities and create dApps using blockchain.
  2. Blockchain and its Business Application
    This course will reveal how blockchain solutions can be applied to real-world business problems in order to create legitimate business models.
  3. An Overview of Ontology
    During this section, students will take a deep-dive into the thought behind the Ontology network, such as our governance structure and our Trust framework.
  4. Migrate to Ontology: Multi-VM for Smart Contracts
    Designed with engineers in mind, this part of the workshops covers the specifics of developing on the Ontology network using Virtual Machines.
  5. Develop on Blockchain: ONT ID + DDXF
    Taking it one step further, this workshop is devoted to giving developers easy access to decentralized environments, teaching students how to utilize Ontology SDKs.
