## Dear Kusama community,
**Allow me to introduce you to our [proposal for 12 Week long Rust academic course](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Vl8aR70PY5LxCUjE9LgncuEQzwT4xZq4kZ-M1_xll18/edit?usp=sharing) held on [Faculty of Informatics and Information technologies, Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava](https://www.fiit.stuba.sk/en.html?page_id=749).**

## Aim of this proposal:
The proposal aims to establish Rust course at Faculty of Informatics and Information technologies in Bratislava. It covers costs of special guests as well as costs for video. The expected outcome is to create an experienced Rust team capable of working on Dotsama ecosystem projects. This will benefit both our University and the ecosystem. Our faculty has an entire research group that focuses on Blockchain. Recently, we had an idea of forming a Rust course. This course aims to gain a team of Rust developers who can help us work on projects and innovations for Dotsama ecosystem. As we know, getting motivated developers into the ecosystem is a very hard task nowadays.

### High-level goals for students

1.  Ability to write custom CLI/server applications using popular crates or to contribute to existing projects
    
2.  Get practical, hands-on experience, so that students can create and write their own projects
    
3.  Deep dive, intermediate-level Rust skill
    
4.  Understand the problems Rust aims to solve
    
5.  Ability to judge whether Rust fits project requirements
    
6.  Understand why Rust features are the way they are

### Course structure

-   7 modules
    
-   12 weeks, 1 lecture of 90 minutes and 1 tutorial of 90 minutes per week
    
-   1 exercise set per lecture, to be completed during tutorial or at home
    
-   1 final project with a small report to be completed during the mentoring session or at home

**More details on course and each individual lecture can be seen in full proposal document below.**
## Proposal schedule

-   Discussion: 9. Oct. 2023 - 15. Oct. 2023
-   Voting: 16. Sept. 2023 - 29. Oct. 2023
