Educational Program Information and Network Engineering

As part of the educational program “Information and Network Engineering,” students learn the principles of building, operating, supporting, maintaining, monitoring and designing a modern network infrastructure.  Bachelors receive basic knowledge of basic network technologies (computer multiservice networks, access networks, transportation networks, the Internet, mobile communication networks, the Internet of things) and software development and information processing technologies (databases, web programming, data analysis, etc.) provides in-depth knowledge of the system administration of computer networks, both local and global, including support, maintenance and monitoring of cloud and distributed computing resources.

In the first and second year the foundation is laid for knowledge of network and IT-technologies, the basic principles of building a global information infrastructure.

In the third and fourth year, students study in depth the areas of their choice, which meet modern trends in the IT industry and telecommunications: Internet of Things, mobile networks, DevOps, Web-programming, information technologies in business, Data/Web mining.

Classes in special disciplines take place, in particular, in the specialized laboratories of the department, which are equipped with modern equipment (from companies Ericsson, Cisco, D-Link, Samsung, Altera MAX, ZyXEL, Watson, SunSet, Texas Instruments, etc.) and powerful computers with  standard and specialized software.

To consolidate the theoretical knowledge and practical skills, students are sent for practical training at Kharkiv leading enterprises of the appropriate profile, including Ukrtelecom, Iskratel-Ukraine, Rivas, 1C-RARUS (TM TELLUR), Maxnet, Lifecell, Datagroup and others.

Skills and competencies that the bachelor will have in the educational information network engineering program:

  1. Analysis of the characteristics of individual elements of the network infrastructure and characteristics of networks in general.
  2. Design, installation, operation of multiservice fixed and mobile networks of the next generation of any scale (personal, local, corporate, global) with a comprehensive use of all modern technologies, including optical.
  3. Deployment, administration and security of computer networks.
  4. Administration and support of servers (Windows and Linux).
