This proposed graduate certificate capitalizes on the existing strong offerings of the Software and Networking cluster of programs within the Information and Communication Engineering Technology department, expanding into specialization in cloud computing.
The contents of this graduate certificate integrate well with the curriculum of current programs and align with the future direction of the IT industry. Through this certificate, students will enhance their skill set in cloud computing principles and administration, cloud security, cloud solution architecture, AI and machine learning on cloud platforms, DevOps, network virtualization, and automation.
As computing continues to move towards an over-the-internet and on-demand model, allowing users to access computing needs without managing physical resources, there will be ongoing demand for professionals who understand cloud technology and cloud deployment. This understanding is and will continue to be in high demand for those in networking, system administration, and software development.
The proposed program fits well as an add-on specialization with our:
- Bachelor of Information Technology - Computer and Communication Networks program
- Computer Systems and Network Technician/Technology Diploma programs
