The Computer Networking Concentration prepares students for careers in network design and planning, network monitoring and management, network application development, or network deployment and customization.
Network design and planning focuses on projecting the organization or company needs onto the structure and configuration of its network, including capacity, security and applications.
Network monitoring and management focuses on installation, operation, and maintenance of a network, including identifying and responding to the failures and attacks, on a day-by-day basis for an organization or company.
Network application development focuses on building complex distributed software systems that depend heavily in their execution on networking.
