Wireless Track
If you select the Wireless Networking, you will be focusing on the edge of the enterprise network. In enterprise communications of the future, users expect the mobility provided by the latest Wi-Fi capabilities. While 5G is anticipated to provide the advantage in distance enterprise connections, the access or user end will be provided by the late-breaking Wi-Fi capabilities. Few network engineers are well-equipped with the skills to design, troubleshoot, and maintain high capacity wireless networking for enterprise. With these skills, you will most certainly set yourself a cut above the crowd seeking entry into computer networking careers.
