PROGRAMME DESCRIPTION
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to computer networking, covering essential
concepts, technologies, and protocols. Students will learn about network architectures,
components, and protocols like TCP/IP. They will explore network infrastructure, including
LANs, WANs, and wireless networking. The course emphasizes network security,
troubleshooting, and management skills, enabling students to design, implement, and maintain
robust networks. By the course's end, students will possess a strong foundation in computer
networking, empowering them to pursue careers in network administration, systems engineering,
or cybersecurity.
PROGRAM GOALS –
1. Understand Networking Fundamentals: The primary goal of this course is to provide
students with a solid understanding of networking fundamentals. By the end of the
course, students should be able to explain the basic concepts, principles, and components
of computer networks.
2. Gain Knowledge of Networking Technologies: Students will acquire knowledge about
various networking technologies, including LANs, WANs, Ethernet, wireless
networking, and network protocols like TCP/IP. They will understand how these
technologies work together to facilitate communication and data transmission across
networks.
3. Develop Network Design and Implementation Skills: The course aims to develop
students' ability to design and implement computer networks. Students will learn about
network architectures, addressing schemes, subnetting, and network security mechanisms
to create efficient and secure networks that meet specific requirements.
4. Learn Network Troubleshooting and Management: Students will acquire skills in

troubleshooting common network issues and managing network performance. They will
understand network monitoring tools, techniques for optimizing network performance,
and best practices for network administration and documentation.
5. Understand Network Security Principles: The course will focus on network security
principles, including the identification of security threats and vulnerabilities. Students
will learn about firewalls, VPNs, encryption protocols, and network access control
mechanisms to ensure the security of network resources.
6. Apply Knowledge in Real-World Scenarios: Throughout the course, students will engage
in hands-on exercises, case studies, and practical projects to apply their knowledge in
real-world networking scenarios. This will enhance their problem-solving skills and
prepare them to tackle networking challenges in professional settings.
By achieving these course goals, students will be well-prepared to pursue further studies or
careers in network administration, systems engineering, cybersecurity, or related fields.
