This course is the first level of an in-depth exposure to computer hardware and operating systems. Students learn the functionality of hardware and software components as well as suggested best practices in maintenance and safety issues. Through hands-on activities, students learn how to assemble and configure a computer, install operating systems and software, and perform basic troubleshooting of hardware problems. This course also covers binary and hexadecimal number systems and prepares students for the CompTIA A+ certification.
This course is the second level of PC hardware and software operations with emphasis on advanced hands-on hardware and software repair. The course covers basic TCP/IP networking, wireless networking, and network troubleshooting. The topics include operating system installation and configuration procedures and more advanced administrative tasks such as user management and security. This course discusses devices such as printers and scanners and further prepares students for the CompTIA A+ certification.
This is a hands-on course concentrating on the installation and maintenance of network hardware components. It covers routers, switches, hubs, and wireless hardware. Students explore other network hardware/software as well as network cabling and wireless characteristics and installation.
This is the first of four courses that prepare students to take the globally recognized Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) examination. The goal of this course is to introduce students to fundamental networking concepts and technologies. The course materials assist students in developing the skills necessary to plan and implement small networks across a range of applications.
This is the second of four courses that prepares students to take the globally recognized Cisco Certified Network Associate examination. The goal of this course is to develop an understanding of how a router learns about remote networks and determines the best path to those networks. This course includes both static routines and dynamic routing protocols.
This course provides students with the background knowledge needed to install and support the growing radio frequency identification market. Students learn RFID technology in order to plan, install, maintain, update, and optimize RFID systems. Students gain hands-on experience using RFID technology.
This is the third of four courses that prepare students to take the globally recognized Cisco Certified Network Associate examination. The goal of this course is to develop an understanding of how switches are interconnected and configured to provide network access to local area network users. This course also teaches how to integrate wireless devices into a LAN.
This course is a hands-on, e-learning solution with an emphasis on practical experience to help students develop specialized security skills to advance their careers. The curriculum helps prepare students for the entry-level Cisco IOS Network Security (IINS) certification exam (640-553) leading to the Cisco CCNA Security Certification.
This is the fourth of four courses that prepare students to take the globally recognized Cisco Certified Network Associate examination. The goal of this course is to introduce students to fundamental wide area network concepts and technologies.
This course permits instruction in special content areas not included in other courses of the Electronics Technology program.
This internship provides students with the opportunity to apply their knowledge, learn new techniques, and get on-the-job training at an approved work site. To develop an internship to meet their academic and career goals, interested students must contact their faculty advisor or appropriate dean. Based on state guidelines, students must complete 40 hours of work for each credit hour.
