1. The network is growing
Applications for NODE's first cohort are open to every student at BMSIT&M — any branch, any year.
You don't need to have written a smart contract before. You do need curiosity, consistency, and the willingness to show your work in public.
2. Who we're looking for
People who like to build:
- Engineers who want to understand how decentralized systems really work
- Designers who can make complex tools feel simple
- Writers and organisers who want to grow a community of builders
3. Pick a track
Smart contracts, protocols & consensus, DApps & infrastructure, hackathons, or design & community. You can switch later — most members end up touching all of them.
4. Your first semester
Six phases, from foundations to shipping a project on a public testnet. Every phase ends with something built, reviewed and open-sourced.
The best way to learn a protocol is to build on it, break it, and read the code that fixed it.
