MA/MS in Computer Systems Networking and Telecommunications

The Telecommunications master's blends applied courses on building networks, cloud computing, wireless systems such as 5G, and cyber security. It targets people who want to enter network engineering and professionals already in the field who wish to deepen their knowledge. The focus is on practical use of network engineering rather than abstract theory, while still giving a thorough grounding in the engineering principles behind it. Hands-on laboratory courses build skills that graduates can apply immediately. Two certificate programs can be taken at the same time as the degree and counted toward it. Applicants hold a bachelor's degree in fields like engineering, mathematics, the sciences, quantitative business or economics, or have equivalent work experience, and usually an undergraduate average of at least 3.00.
