BSAT
 
  518. MANAGEMENT OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY.
(3, 0, 3). Administration of the information systems function. Includes impact of the function, control of information systems resources, and evaluation of projects (cost/benefit analysis). Prereq: BSAT 516.
 
EMGT
 
  508. ENGINEERING PROJECT MANAGEMENT. (3, 0, 3).
Principles of engineering management applicable to project development and implementation. Includes topics such as systems theory and concepts, organizational structure, project planning, scheduling, staffing, budgeting, and control of engineering projects.
 
POLS
 
  457(G). PUBLIC POLICY DEVELOPMENT AND ADMINISTRATION. (3, 0, 3).
A concept-oriented examination of the policy process in the United States. In-depth attention is given to agenda setting, formulation, legitimation, budget-making, implementation, evaluation, and termination of public policies.
 
TLCM
 
  500. PHYSICAL SCIENCE OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS. (3, 0, 3).
This course in the physical phenomena that form the basis for telecommunications systems is intended for students with minimal science and math backgrounds. The concepts include electromagnetic waves, electro-optics, time and frequency description of signals, sampling, and noise.

502. TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEMS. (2, 3, 3).
The fundamentals of telecommunications terminal, transmission and switching equipment are presented along with a hands-on laboratory. Terminals include voice, data and video and their interfaces with digital networks. Transmission includes wire line, radio and fiber optic. Switches considered are digital. Prereq: TLCM 500.

510. RANDOM PHENOMENA IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS. (3, 0, 3).
This course in the concepts of probability and random processes needed for the study of telecommunications is designed for students with engineering, math or science background. Included in this course are Poisson processes and queuing, noise processes that describe thermal and quantization noise, and the spectra of various random signals.

511. TELECOMMUNICATIONS TRANSMISSION PRINCIPLES. (3, 0, 3).
Bandwidth considerations for coding of information signals from various information media. Transmission of baseband and modulated waveforms through radio, conducting cable, and fiber optic channels. Prereq: TLCM 510.

513. TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORK ANALYSIS AND DESIGN. (3, 0, 3).
Layered architecture for telecommunications networks with emphasis on layers two through four. Standards-based networks including link protocols, flow control, and routing algorithms. Integrated-services networks for multimedia information flow are considered along with appropriate signaling systems. Prereq: TLCM 510.

597-598. DIRECTED INDIVIDUAL STUDY IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS. (3, 0, 3 ea.).
Students pursue in-depth advanced projects subject to faculty approval.

599. THESIS RESEARCH AND THESIS. (1 - 6).
Grades: S, U, W.
