Diploma of Electrical Engineering Technology (Telecommunication)

Information transmission over long distances is the focus of telecommunication engineering. Due in large part to the propensity to encode, compress, and encrypt all information as well as the increasing significance of digital and wireless (such as mobile phone) networks, it is closely linked to data communications.
