There is a high demand for graduates who can develop and implement solutions for
the configuration and integration of wireless devices and networks with wired networks
in this growing technology sector.

Program Highlights
Networks, and increasingly wireless networks, are becoming the hub of commercial and industrial development
across the world as we understand and experience the benefits of wireless networking for day to day functions,
including:

operations monitoring and control

communications within and between organizations
information sharing within and between organizations
mobile real time accounting and cost control
real time sales support and marketing

At the heart of the wireless world is Wireless Information Networking (WIN), and the growing need for professionals
who can develop and implement solutions for the configuration and integration of wireless devices.

Capturing data from wireless sensors or wireless synching of mobile devices within secure environments are only a
couple of the types of wireless information networking challenges facing businesses, government and
organizations today that this program addresses.

Building on the success of our Computer Engineering, Security, and Instrumentation and Control Diplomas, this
intensive, unique Graduate Certificate program reflects the latest developments in WIN and relies heavily on
applied teaching approaches. It focuses on the design, planning, implementation, operation and troubleshooting of
wireless networks, and will cover a wide range of topics including:
