Introduction
The Bachelor of Science in Applied Telecommunications and Network Engineering (B.Sc. TNE) is an applied degree with learning outcomes closely linked to the labor market. The program provides students with the knowledge, skills, and competencies needed for a telecommunication and networking industry career. The program teaches students to design telecommunications devices or components, systems, equipment, and distribution centers. It also teaches students to specify production or installation methods, materials, and quality, and safety standards, and direct production or installation work of telecom. Students gain an in-depth knowledge of developing signal processing algorithms and implementing these through appropriate choice of hardware and software. When consolidated through the completion of a Capstone project and work placement, this skill set prepares graduates for an exciting career in the telecommunication and networking industry.
