Master of Science in Cloud Computing program offers students both theory and practice so that the students can understand and implement cloud-based applications. The course will, along with the valuable academic qualification, provide you with the latest knowledge and competencies required by one of the fastest growing global industry - cloud computing.

The program, which falls under the School of Engineering Technology and Applied Science umbrella, prides itself on offering an ideal balance between hands-on experience and theory. As such, to develop a solid foundation in network design and testing as well as project management, you will learn to use state-of-the-art testing and measurement equipment in purpose-built labs.

In this specialist route through our BSc (Honours) Computing and IT (Q62), you’ll gain an understanding of the fundamental principles of communications technologies. You’ll achieve a sound understanding of the principles of hardware and systems-based technologies, and the ability to apply your knowledge and skills in a broad range of industries and organisations.

This applied course will give students an in-depth understanding of network management, providing them with a systematic understanding of the concepts and standards for network management, network management protocols and network management tools. The course looks at virtualisation and cloud computing, exploring and understanding modern data centres, virtualisation, distributed storage, MapReduce, NoSQL, platform services, web services and caching. Students will study online security risks, the steps needed to ensure that data is transmitted and stored securely and measures that can be taken not only to prevent breaches but to minimise damage if they do occur.

Industry projections indicate that cloud services are poised to become a $300 billion business by 2021. There are over 50,000 cloud computing jobs available today, with a median salary of $146,000. Washington, DC, and Arlington/Alexandria are in the top 5 cities where cloud computing jobs are located. (Forbes). George Mason University is perfectly positioned to contribute to this workforce. The Cloud Computing concentration in the Bachelor of Applied Science program will prepare students to embark on a career in the Cloud Computing sector. Our faculty and staff worked in unison with AWS Educate curriculum designers to create a path that will help students pursue careers in cloud architecture, cybersecurity, software development, and DevOps, a system of software development and delivery.

The Cloud Computing program develops skills for the occupations of cloud architect and cloud technician using Amazon Web Services (AWS), the leading cloud computing provider. The program bridges traditional on-premises data center skills of server installation, database management, and networking set-up and cabling into virtualizations of these information and computing technologies over online services. Job preparation will include industry certifications of AWS Cloud Practitioner and AWS Solutions Architect Associate mapped to course work.

The Associate in Science in Computer Networking Technology prepares students to design, administer, maintain, and troubleshoot networks of different sizes. Students learn a diverse array of skills, including specification preparation, network management, network design, equipment and system sales, and software development.

The Degree in Computer Engineering and Virtual Technologies is attached to the Computer Science branch and works on the standard competencies of said engineering, in such a way that it enables to opt for various professional opportunities in numerous sectors of production and of great international projection.

Digitalization is here to stay. The ongoing digitalization builds on an efficient communications infrastructure. The studies in communication systems and networks focus on the Future Internet and the evolving and emerging (4G, 5G, and beyond) wireless broadband and multi-service communication systems, which are crucial elements for the future connected world.

Gain the skills you need to kick-start your career with the MSc Intelligent Networks and Cloud Computing with Management Studies. You will have the opportunity to use our state-of-the-art laboratories, with up-to-date computers and Local Area Networks (LAN).

In just 10 years, the field of IT infrastructure has evolved from installing routers and managing operating systems to creating the virtual data centers we now call the cloud. This disruptive change has made cloud services an essential tool for any organization, offering significant advantages such as enhanced interaction, greater security, and increased productivity for businesses.

This course offers the knowledge and skills for designing, developing and operating secure IP-based networks. It offers practical skills in the specification, design, modelling and implementation of software and hardware. You will gain specialist knowledge of digital communications, multimedia communications, wireless networks and security issues. You will study the technologies of LTE and 5G wireless networks and the Internet of Things.
