Study for a career in telecommunications

In our expanding global marketplace, consumers reward companies that move swiftly to solve their problems. Telecommunications professionals make their companies more efficient by understanding the needs of their customers and leveraging technology to meet those needs more effectively than the competition.

Telecommunications majors study two distinct areas of technology and business. First, telecommunications students learn to understand the hardware and software that keep information flowing freely. Many telecommunications programs expose their students to courses in software programming and hardware engineering.

Second, telecommunications majors learn how to use that technology to get that information across. Students learn how to replace inefficient cross-country business trips with effective multi-media conferences. They discover how a simple tool like a bar code scanner can shave days off the time it takes to ship a customer order from one coast to the other.

Telecommunication students combine these specific skills with general courses designed to stimulate their business acumen and their critical thinking. Armed with a degree in telecommunications, an experienced manager can earn a salary of $85,000 or more at a major company, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Regardless of their field of expertise, professionals can reinvigorate their careers by pursuing part-time telecommunications degrees.
