Auburn University moves to forefront of wireless technology
Auburn University moves to forefront of wireless technology
Cell phones are just the tip of the iceberg. Wireless information technology is here to stay in our homes, cars, hospitals and workplaces.
This fall, Auburn University’s Samuel Ginn College of Engineering will launch the nation’s first bachelor of wireless engineering degree program to provide students with the tools they need to join the wireless revolution.
The new degree program complements a larger initiative called the Information Technology Peak of Excellence centered in the Ginn College of Engineering. This effort is designed to capitalize and expand on existing strengths to move Auburn engineering into a leadership position across all segments of information technology – from gathering, communicating, processing and analyzing information, to using it to make decisions and to take action. The emphasis will be on wireless communication.
