Furthermore, continuous update of knowledge is vital for the professionals already employed in these sectors. Most importantly telecommunication and computer networking has merged into a single sector in providing high bandwidth, diversified services required today. Although many degree programs in telecommunication or computer networking at master’s level are available at local universities, there is no program which caters the need for joint telecommunication and networking expertise requirement.
