The MS in Telecommunications is a technical degree program that is accessible to students with technical or non-technical backgrounds.

The Master of Science in Telecommunications offers a blend of cutting-edge practice-oriented courses in cloud computing, network engineering, 5G, and cybersecurity. This industry-oriented program is designed for students who wish to enter the field of network engineering or are working in the field and want to advance their industry knowledge. The program concentrates on practical applications of network engineering rather than on a theoretical approach, while providing a thorough education in the necessary engineering principles. Hands-on laboratory courses provide students with practical skills and knowledge needed to hit the ground running after graduation. This program also offers two certificate programs that may be incorporated into, and taken concurrently with, the MS in Telecommunications.
