Web3 is entering the lecture halls and @TRON DAO is making sure it’s not just theory.
On February 25, 2026, #TRON Academy expanded its reach to four globally respected institutions: Dartmouth College, Princeton University, University of Oxford, and University of Cambridge.
This addition strengthens an already powerful academic circle that includes Columbia University, Harvard University, Yale University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cornell University, University of California, Berkeley, and Imperial College London.
TRON Academy isn’t just a campus partnership program. It plugs directly into student blockchain communities, giving them infrastructure access, builder mentorship, hands-on workshops, and incentives to actually ship products. Many of these groups range from 100 to over 2,500 active members creating a serious pipeline of future Web3 founders and engineers.
For the 2025–2026 academic year, dedicated collaborations with campus blockchain societies at Dartmouth, Princeton, Oxford, and Cambridge will power in-person and hybrid programs focused on real-world development, not just classroom discussion.
The timing is important. With more than 366 million accounts, over 13 billion transactions, and $23 billion+ in total value locked, the TRON network is already operating at global scale. Connecting that live infrastructure to university talent creates a direct bridge between education and execution.
For students, it means building on production-grade blockchain rails.
For TRON, it means long-term ecosystem growth driven by deeply trained developers.
For Web3, it signals that the next generation of builders is being prepared inside some of the world’s most influential institutions.
