Design and Implementation of a Blockchain-Based Academic Certificate Verification System

Uses Ethereum smart contracts to issue and verify tamper-proof academic certificates for Nigerian schools.

About this project

This project deploys an Ethereum (or Polygon) smart contract that schools call to issue cryptographically signed certificates. Employers verify the certificate hash through a public web portal.

Suggested tech stack

Solidity
Hardhat
React
ethers.js
IPFS

Chapters 1–5 outline

Chapter 1

Introduction: background to blockchain credentialing, statement of the problem (fake certificates are widely reported in Nigerian hiring), aim and objectives, research questions, scope, significance of the study, and definition of terms.

Chapter 2

Literature Review: theoretical framework, review of related works on blockchain credentialing, gaps in existing studies, and a summary positioning this project.

Chapter 3

Methodology / System Analysis and Design: Solidity + Hardhat + React + ethers.js + IPFS. Includes data collection method, system requirements, use-case and architecture diagrams (or population, sample size, and instrument).

Chapter 4

Implementation and Results: a working dApp where the school issues a sample certificate and an employer verifies it. Presentation of findings, testing, evaluation, and discussion of results.

Chapter 5

Summary, Conclusion and Recommendations: key findings, contribution to knowledge, limitations, and recommendations for further research.
