Course Overview:
IST 220 is an introductory course to digital networking and telecommunications and their applications in information systems. It is a required core course for both the two-year and four-year IST degrees. Its objective is to provide the students with a basic understanding of the working of computer and telecommunication networks and the ability to apply this knowledge to specific applications and situations. The course will cover the following topics:
- Overview of networking and telecommunications
- Telecommunications history
- Telecommunications transmission media
- Transmission characteristics
- Multiplexing
- Error characteristics, detection, and correction
- Local and wide area networking applications, hardware, and software
- The OSI (Open Systems Interconnection) models
- Industry standards, topologies and protocols
- Internetworking devices and applications
- The internet and applications
- Communications management
- Network security and recovery
- Information system applications
- The selection of telecommunications and networking systems
While the course is about digital technology and how it works, it is not a training course in particular equipment and/or applications. While there will be demonstrations of relevant technologies, the course is not equipment intensive and will not involve special technology needs beyond the normal access to computers, the internet and web.
Prerequisite: IST110: Introduction to Information Sciences and Technology.
Course Objectives:
The objectives of this course are two-fold:
(1) to provide students with a basic understanding of networking and telecommunications,
(2)to develop the students ability in applying networking and telecommunication knowledge to specific applications and situations, such as the internet, intranet, and e-commerce.
