该证书为研究生提供了在计算机网络，系统集成和软件测试方面达到证明的能力水平的机会。获得研究生证书的课程可能会获得电气工程或计算机工程硕士学位的学分，但是，该证书的主要目的是为想要提高现代网络知识的学生提供定义明确的课程，系统集成和测试，但不一定要完成MS学位的要求。注册证书课程的学生将获得前沿领域的最新科学和实用信息。所有课程均由我们杰出的教师讲授，他们在各自领域或研究和实践中拥有多年经验。作为梅森大学的研究生，您将可以使用我们图书馆的大量资源以及伏尔加瑙学校的开放实验室。
This certificate provides graduate students with the opportunity to reach a demonstrated level of competence in computer networks, system integration, and software testing. Course work toward the graduate certificate may be used for credit toward the MS in electrical engineering or computer engineering degrees, however, the certificate's primary purpose is to provide a well-defined program for students who want to advance their knowledge of modern networks, systems integration and testing, but do not necessarily want to complete requirements for the MS degree.Students who enroll in a certificate program will receive state-of-the art scientific and practical information in cutting-edge areas. All courses are taught by our distinguished faculty with years of experience in their respective fields or research and practice. As graduate student at Mason you will have access to the vast resources of our library and the open lab facilities in the Volgenau School.
