The objective of this option is to provide students with the skills required to work with, administer and manage telecommunications networks and systems. Graduates of this program will have the technical knowledge to design, implement and procure telecommunications networks and the management skills to maximize the financial returns on these systems. This option prepares the student for such careers as telecommunications manager, network administrator, telecommunications sales representative, e-commerce developer and customer support representative.

The coursework provides the technical background to understand the underlying network architecture, protocols, and technology with a special emphasis on case studies and industrial implementations. The benefit/cost analysis of these networks and their impact on the business environment is studied in depth. This option is not accredited by TAC of ABET.

Typical Technology AAS Program students or other students (business majors, etc.) who expect to transfer to the junior year of this B.S.E.T. program should have successfully completed most of the following courses or equivalent in their first two years of study.
