It teaches you how modern computer networks and the Internet work, how they are structured, and how they operate. The ability to understand, analyse, design, configure and manage computer networks and network services is a requirement for a range of graduate entry information technology positions. The unit provides the necessary knowledge and skills for further study in networks, cyber security, computer science and other relevant areas. Other advanced-level networks and cyber security units build on this unit by extending your fundamental understanding of computer networks for more complex needs and various network application requirements.
