In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the future of documents, certificates, and credentials lies in blockchain technology. By storing them as Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), institutions can ensure security, immutability, and verifiable authenticity in a trustless and decentralized manner. This paradigm shift is set to revolutionize how academic and professional credentials are managed.
However, the traditional Web2-based university student email systems fall short when it comes to securely receiving, storing, and proving the authenticity of NFT-based documents.
To bridge this gap, we propose the development of a Web3 Domain Name Service (DNS) for Manipal University Jaipur (MUJ) students. This innovative platform will equip students with Web3-compatible domains under the university’s domain name, empowering them to securely receive, manage, and verify their NFT credentials.
Additionally, the portal is the web3 implementation of our portal: mujslcm.jaipur.manipal.edu. This platform not only enables Web3 domain management but also tracks student attendance, certificates, and other essential academic credentials, providing an all-in-one solution for students and faculty.
-
Enable Secure Document Management
Provide students with Web3 domains to securely receive, store, and manage NFT-based documents, certificates, and credentials. -
Ensure Verifiable Authenticity
Facilitate a trustless verification process for academic and professional credentials, ensuring immutability and tamper-proof authenticity. -
Enhance Digital Identity
Empower students with a decentralized digital identity, fully integrated with blockchain technology, putting them in control of their academic records. -
Streamline Credential Verification
Simplify the credential verification process for employers and institutions, reducing manual intervention and delays. -
Integrated Attendance and Certificate Management
Enable students to track their attendance and receive blockchain-verified certificates directly through the portal, creating a unified platform for academic and credential management.
- Students will be able to register unique Web3 domains (e.g.,
studentname.muj) under the MUJ domain. - These domains will serve as decentralized digital identities, enabling secure interactions with blockchain-based services.
- The platform will facilitate the receipt and storage of NFT-based documents on the blockchain.
- Credentials will be stored securely, ensuring easy access and long-term retention.
- Leveraging blockchain technology, third parties can verify the authenticity of documents without intermediaries.
- This ensures a seamless and tamper-proof verification process for employers and other stakeholders.
- Integrate with the university’s student lifecycle management system to allow students to monitor attendance records.
- Issue attendance reports and certificates as NFTs for enhanced security and verifiability.
- A simple and intuitive dashboard will allow students to manage their Web3 domains, NFT documents, attendance, and verification requests.
- Mobile-friendly and optimized for accessibility, the interface will make adoption seamless for all users.
The Web3 Domain Name Service will place MUJ at the forefront of the digital transformation in higher education. By integrating blockchain technology, MUJ will:
- Empower Students: Provide them with cutting-edge tools to manage their academic and professional credentials securely.
- Enhance Credibility: Position itself as a pioneer in the adoption of decentralized technologies for academic records.
- Streamline Verification: Reduce the time and cost associated with credential verification processes for employers and institutions.
- Set Global Standards: Establish MUJ as a leader in blockchain-driven innovation for educational institutions worldwide.
This initiative will not only provide immediate benefits to current students but will also serve as a model for the future of credential management in higher education.
The Web3 Domain Name Service for MUJ students is a visionary project that aligns with the future of digital credentials. By providing a secure, decentralized, and verifiable platform for managing NFT-based academic records, MUJ will empower its students and enhance their digital identity. This transformative initiative will set a precedent for universities globally, leading the way toward a blockchain-enabled educational ecosystem.
