The Master of Science in Computer Information Systems concentration in Computer Networks provies stuents with a broa founation in information technology (IT), an an in-epth unerstaning of computer ata communication an moern networking. The six core courses inclue a comprehensive, introuctory networking course that covers igital communications, local area, wie area, wireless, an other network technologies. The core also inclues courses in atabases, math for IT, strategic IT, software evelopment, an systems analysis an esign. The Computer Networks focus area courses provie stuents with a comprehensive unerstaning of network esign an implementation, network performance analysis an management, network security, an the latest networking technology. The program is esigne to empower stuents with extensive knowlege an hans-on experience to analyze, esign, procure, manage, an implement cutting-ege computer networking solutions an technologies.

Stuents who complete the Computer Information Systems master’s egree concentration in Computer Networks will be able to emonstrate:

• Avance knowlege in the analysis an ocumentation of requirements for architecture, esign, an implementation of computer applications systems.
• Proficiency in software an computing skills as they pertain to the esign an implementation of atabase systems, ata communications, systems analysis, an esign.
