The graduate program in Telecommunications and Network Management (TNM) goes far beyond a typical IT degree. The Telecommunications and Network Management graduate degree offered at the School of Information Studies at Syracuse University has evolved into the premier Telecommunications and Network Management program within the United States. The Telecommunications and Network Management degree is a marriage of technology, policy and management. It is not an engineering or programming degree but gives IT professionals and new industry entrants a broader view of how to apply and use networking technologies to solve business problems.

The graduate certificate consists of courses from both the Computer Science and Electrical Engineering Departments. It is intended for students who hold a baccalaureate degree in science or engineering and who wish to concentrate on hardware/software issues pertaining to telecommunications.

DePaul CTI takes an innovative approach to Distance Learning by offering each DL course in conjunction with an on-campus section of the same course. Live courses are recorded using CTI's Course OnLine system, then posted online for DL students to view at their convenience. In this way DL courses are generated anew every quarter, keeping the content and examples fresh. Students communicate with faculty and other students via telephone, email, online discussion groups, or online chat. All CTI DL courses are taught by the same distinguished faculty teaching the on-campus courses. The flexibility offered by our DL degree programs makes it possible for many students to pursue a graduate education despite the pressures of work and family obligations. Because requirements are the same in DL and on-campus courses, students are able to take whatever combination of online and on-ground courses that fits their needs.
