Know Analogue and Digital Switching Systems including Circuit and Packet Switching techniques. Know ISDN interface, Network and Protocols. Know Frame Relay and its Network Structure and Protocols for High Speed Data Communication. Know ATM Network and Protocols Structure and understand its capabilities as a powerful backbone support Network. Know Cellular GSM Telephone network architectures including Frequency management; switching technology, microwave facilities and link design considerations. Know Computer Networking including different computer network Protocols, and know computer Internetworking including Architecture, Inter-networking issues such as: network layer structure, Router and gateway, Internet protocol standards, Internet IP, routing protocols, Addressing, Domain Name System, Connectionless datagram delivery, Internet protocol suite, Internet application protocols, Internet and network management and Wireless LAN Technology including Network standards such as Bluetooth and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technologies. Method of Lecture Delivery/ Teaching Aids: In this relatively large class of over 250 students, projector and occasional multimedia teaching aids are used. But to gain full attention of students and commit them to 100 percent participation, regular exercises are to be introduced at different stages of the lecture plan. Document1 2 D.

Week 10: Introduction to Computer Networking and Topology Week 11: Computer Network Protocols Week 12: Wireless LAN and Bluetooth Networks Week 13: Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Week 14 and 15: Revision and Examination Tutorial: One extra hour is used for tutorials. All students without exception must participate in this specially designed extra tutorial hour every week. This tutorial is also designed to equip the students with vital information for the SIWES IT programme. Document1 3 F. Structure of the Programme/Method of Grading: Assignment 7.5% Test1: 7.5% Mid – Semester Test: 15% Final Semester Examination: 70% Ground Rules and Regulations: Students are expected to have a minimum of 75% lecture attendance to be qualified for examination. In addition, students must have writing materials and calculator during lectures, tutorials and examinations. G. H. Topics for Term Papers/Assignments/Students Activities: In this full interactive lecturing, students must participate actively during lectures and tutorials. In addition, each student is expected to submit an assignment report for assessment. As a result, students are expected to be fully involved. I. Alignment with Covenant University Vision/Goals: The interactive nature of the course and the relaxed environment which obtain during lectures and tutorials are designed to produce disciplined and diligent students in realisation of the goals and vision of Covenant University. J. Contemporary Issues/Industry Relevance: The course is specially designed to equip our students before proceeding on their industrial training program called SIWES (Student Industrial Work Experience Scheme). As such, students are lectured and prepared through this course to face the modern high technology world outside. K. Recommended Readings/Text: Louis E.
