Synergy University in Russia is planning to establish a #blockchain technology faculty. This faculty will provide education for those interested in gaining #knowledge about #cryptocurrency and blockchain.

Professors at the university have noted a growing interest among prospective students and existing ones in the digital economy. Specific areas such as smart contract programming and #decentralized application (DApps) development have gained significant popularity.

This isn't the first instance where Russian universities have introduced courses and faculties dedicated to blockchain technology. In August, the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology announced that it would admit postgraduate students for a course in applied mathematics and informatics with a focus on blockchain fundamentals.

These initiatives reflect the increasing interest in blockchain technology among students and academic institutions in Russia.
