Bank KYC System (Ethereum)
This project includes creating a system where a number of banks can come together in a network for approving the KYC of a customer. Usually in regular systems, when a customer gets his/her KYC done at a bank, it is not reflected in the other banks which leads to multiple KYC requests at multiple banks. To solve this problem and to bring transparency to the overall banking system, learners will build a system that provides KYC for a customer on the Ethereum blockchain network. Learners will be building smart contracts based on the conditions given in the problem statement.
Bank KYC System (Ethereum)
Land Registration System (Hyperledger)
This module will be focused on creating a project on the land or property registration system. There will be three major functions that the project will include: User registration, property registration and property transfer to a different user. Learners will be writing chaincode on the Hyperledger network to achieve these major functionalities. The aim is to create a decentralised network so that there are lesser dependencies on a central authority.
Land Registration System (Hyperledger)
Healthcare - Covid-19 Management Application (Hyperledger)
The aim of this project is to create a space for doctors, patients, hospitals and insurance companies to view and access the medical test results and manage it on a decentralized platform. The project will include:

Vehicle Collateralized loans on the Blockchain network
In this project, learners will not be coding but designing an entire application. Learners will try to design a solution that will build a system where the lenders and the debtors can come together on a single platform to increase transparency and traceability. Students will be creating a detailed presentation that will include all the required points after doing a thorough research on the problem statement. The presentation will be presented in front of a panel for evaluation.

Supply Chain management system (Hyperledger - Capstone project)
Supply chain is the entire process of the journey of a product from the manufacturer to the customer. This process currently is very opaque. To overcome this limitation, the entire supply chain can be built on the blockchain network. In this project, the learners will try to build an end-to-end application of the entire supply chain on the blockchain network. As this project will be on Hyperledger, learners will be writing chaincode and the frontend of the application as well.
