- Academic Milestone: Luiss University launches “Curriculum On Chain,” enabling authentication of certificates, diplomas, and recognitions as NFTs on the Polygon blockchain.
- Enhanced Security and Accessibility: The initiative provides students with a non-custodial wallet to certify, digitize, and store academic titles, ensuring security, traceability, and easy access.
Introducing “Curriculum On Chain”
In a groundbreaking development, Luiss University has firmly positioned itself as a trailblazer in academic innovation and integrity. The introduction of “Curriculum On Chain,” a novel initiative allowing for the authentication of academic certificates, diplomas, and various recognitions as Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) on the Polygon blockchain, marks a significant leap towards a more secure, accessible, and traceable system of academic accreditation.

Bridging Blockchain and Academia
Polygon, a well-established platform known for its commitment to fostering scalability and usability within the Ethereum ecosystem, serves as the underlying technology for this ambitious project. The collaboration with key players in the blockchain space, including Pomilio Blumm and Knobs Blockchain, further solidifies the initiative’s potential to drive innovation across the academic and educational sectors.
Through “Curriculum On Chain,” Luiss University is not only facilitating a more secure method of academic verification but also empowering students with the tools to take ownership of their academic achievements. The provision of a non-custodial wallet enables students to certify, digitize, and store their academic titles, alongside other digital assets, in a decentralized manner, ensuring that control remains firmly in the hands of the user.
A Proof of Concept and Beyond
The initiative extends beyond the mere digitization of academic credentials. An initial Proof of Concept (PoC) included in the project allows users to establish their digital identity on-chain, signaling a comprehensive approach to digital transformation within the academic realm.
As the educational landscape continues to evolve, “Curriculum On Chain” stands as a testament to Luiss University’s commitment to innovation, security, and accessibility. This shift towards blockchain-based solutions in academia is poised to redefine how academic achievements are verified, stored, and accessed, ushering in a new era of trust and efficiency in the sector.
