Information Technology – Networks Design and Management Emphasis

This challenging degree program is the perfect way to advance your career in network management because it includes earning your Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) certification. It also includes earning several other IT certifications—at no additional cost to you. So you're not just completing a bachelor's degree, you're acquiring the respected industry certifications that will quickly propel you toward greater professional success. (If you already possess your MCSE, you can dramatically shorten the time to complete the program!)

In addition to the networks specialization, the program's core components provide a rigorous and broad knowledge base across several IT areas: networks, operating systems, databases, software, security, e-commerce, and project management. It also includes lower-division general education areas of study if those are not cleared through prior college experience.
