Degree Title:	Bachelor's in Network and Communications Management
College:	DeVry University
Description:	DeVry's Bachelor's in Network and Communications Management program integrates technology and business management coursework, enabling graduates to analyze communications needs, provide effective networking solutions and fill a critical niche in business organizations. Nearly every business depends on networks. When they go down, operations virtually cease. Network and Communications Management professionals fill that critical niche in business organizations, designing, implementing, securing and managing networks - from Ethernet-enabled voice-operated IP systems to security firewalls to next-generation network administration. With new positions opening up and older NCM workers retiring, networking promises to be the second largest job growth segment in North America for the next ten years. The program addresses designing, implementing, securing and managing networks in order to gain a technical understanding of networking data, voice and images, as well as their strategic application in business.
