Engineering Technologies and Engineering Transfer

Information Systems Networking Certificate

Telecommunications is the common factor in distributed processing, online systems, teleprocessing, terminal-based systems and real-time systems.  Wide-area communications and local-area networks are explored as well as many of the latest protocols.  All topics are covered from a practical rather than a theoretical viewpoint.

Students must earn a grade of "C" or better in all of the courses offered within the Engineering Technology and Engineering Transfer department for the grade to be counted toward graduation.
