Blockchain and Web3 will start to become a mainstay of secondary and tertiary education, and it looks like Singapore is leading the way in Asia, says Tezos proponent and TZ APAC CEO Colin Miles.
Colin Miles, the newly-appointed CEO of TZ APAC expects blockchain and web 3.0 curricula to start becoming an integral part of secondary and tertiary education within the next three to five years.Miles was speaking to Cointelegraph after the announcement of TZ APAC’s partnershipwith the National University of Singapore ’s School of Computing on May 10, which will see the Tezos agency supporting the development of the university’s new center for Nurturing Computing Excellence.
“If you have a dedicated center in NUS, which runs blockchain courses every day of every week for students… it will become part of the fabric of one of the best computing schools in the world. I would imagine that most other schools would look to that as an example to follow.” NUS currently offers an in-depth blockchain curriculum aimed at a range of levels from beginners to CEOs and mid-level managers. Other well-known universities offering courses in blockchain include Massachusetts Institute of Technology , Harvard University, Oxford University, Cornell University and University of California Berkeley.“Overall this trend will become a mainstay, because a large number of exciting new jobs will come from the Web3 environment.
