Contrary to what appears to be popular belief, there are schools which have
Networking programs..For instance, New York Institute of Technology has an
AAS in Telecommunications Technology and a BS in Telecommunications
Management.
Classes include multiple Voice & Data classes, as well as Wireless
Networking, Traffic Management, Network Management, LAN/WAN/MAN, Telecom Law/Policy, as well as a slew of Electronics and CompSci classes...
All very useful for foundations, and pretty interesting...At least I found
it useful and worth the money...
