Course Name
:
M.S.E. in Telecommunications and Networking (TCOM)
Course Description
:
The M.S.E. Program in Telecommunications and Networking (TCOM) is designed to
address the increasingly complex demands placed on current and future
telecommunications managers in the private, public, and military sectors.
Courses cover a broad range of telecommunications and networking issues while
reinforcing a systems approach. Since the program takes a holistic, rather than
an individualistic approach, students learn everything about telecommunication
systems from hardware and software technologies to societal and management
issues.
The course trains the students to transform themselves into leaders who will
shape the future of this dynamic field. This program draws courses and faculty
from the Electrical & Systems Engineering and Computer & Information Science
departments and the Wharton School of Business. Telecommunications and
Networking students take courses in various departments in the engineering and
business schools in addition to specially designed TCOM courses. This
multidisciplinary approach gives students the flexibility to tailor the
curriculum to their specific interests, backgrounds, and career goals.
