Course Overview
Students leverage the knowledge and skills they have accumulated during the first 33 weeks of the program to design, build, test, and troubleshoot a computer network. The students work in teams, develop a report and presentation on their project, and exercise project management procedures. The computer network is deployed across the classrooms using real equipment interconnected in a hierarchy that lends the design to multiple subnets, sites & services, issues with bandwidth, and issues with security. This provides a real-world experience.
