I've recently started going through the Raft lab for 6.824 (and still working on it), and I /highly/ recommend doing the labs in this course (I am not an MIT student, nor in college). This course is fairly practical in nature, and will expose you to the real-world aspects of distributed systems!
Even the first assignment, which is just implementing aspects of mapreduce, will make you exercise some nice concurrency concepts. They have tests and everything to check that you have a working implementation!
At the very least, checkout the recommended readings!
