Gate News: On March 18, more than 20 decentralized finance (DeFi) projects jointly issued an open letter calling on major U.S. universities to incorporate DeFi and cryptocurrency education into the core curriculum of business schools and law schools. This initiative is part of the “1inch Forward” campaign led by 1inch, with participants including the Blockchain Association, DeFi Education Fund, The Solana Policy Institute, Aave Labs, and Dune, among others. The campaign plans to kick off a campus tour with presentations at the University of Pennsylvania on March 27. The open letter proposes three recommendations: to include blockchain architecture and decentralized technology courses as core classes, teach students about DeFi mechanisms such as Automated Market Makers (AMMs), and provide practical opportunities to participate in real DeFi systems. Participating organizations have expressed their willingness to assist in designing course content and to offer internship and research opportunities.
