During the semester, ORU was able to deliver numerous metaverse classes to students who expressed interest in exploring the virtual word of the metaverse.
For the second year of its 55-year history, ORU’s 2022 919-degree candidates were presented with digital credentials that can be shared through the blockchain with potential employers and other higher education institutions. Graduates’ records ranging from certificates to official diplomas are now encrypted, tracked, and validated using a distributed ledger.
The campus-wide technology is powered by NWN Carousel. ORU and NWN Carousel have worked jointly to transform the campus into a robust smart-campus to meet the growing needs of today’s college students.
