Comprehensive knowledge in the field of research, creation and operation of computer systems, computer networks, information and analytical systems, obtained by graduates of this program, undoubtedly increase the competitive advantages of masters of the program "Computer systems and networks" in the job market and ensure their further career development, since their training is primarily focused on activities related to the use of information systems and network technologies of a new generation.

The competitive advantage of the master's program "Computer systems and networks" is also the ability of graduates of the program to simultaneously pass Exams for obtaining qualification certificates without additional training:

• In the Cisco Systems vendor certification system.

• In the vendor certification system of ZyXEL Corporation.

• In the IBM vendor certification system.

Training at an authorized training center of ZyXEL Corporation is carried out according to the following programs:

• ZyXEL Certified Network Engineer (VoIP specialization);

• ZyXEL Certified Network Engineer (specialization in xDSL);

• ZyXEL Certified Network Engineer (specialization in Wireless);

• ZyXEL Certified Network Engineer (Ethernet specialization);

• ZyXEL Security Specialist;

Training is carried out on the most modern network and telecommunications equipment, which is delivered to training centers earlier than to Russian dealers.

Training in the IBM Corporation's only competence center in the Russian Federation with the participation of the HSE MIEM basic Department "Information and analytical systems-EU Leasing" is conducted in 11 authorized programs.

According to the results of training, students receive international certificates.

The basic curriculum of the Computer systems and networks program consists of several blocks that provide methodological support for students to consistently acquire the necessary knowledge and skills:

Block 1. Disciplines(modules), including sections:

• M. 1 – cycle of disciplines of the direction;

• M. 2 – cycle of disciplines of the program/specialization;

Block 2. Practice(s), project and(or) research work

Block 3. State final certification.

The cycle of disciplines provides fundamental training in the field of computer systems and computer networks, information and analytical systems, their design and modeling, corresponding to the educational standard for training masters in this field, forming mainly universal and General professional competencies.

The program's cycle of disciplines, including both basic and variable subjects, is aimed at studying modern and promising computer systems and complexes, computer networks, corporate information and analytical systems, approaches and methods in research , modeling and design of computer systems and networks, as well as Russian and international experience in their creation and application. These disciplines and the subsequent development of the studied techniques and tools in the course of practice, allow you to acquire and develop professional competencies.

Adaptation courses are intended for undergraduates who have education in areas of training that do not correspond to the profile of the program in order to equalize the starting conditions for students, as well as for more in-depth development of undergraduates disciplines of specializations.

The block "Practice(s), project and(or) research work" includes:

• Production practice, which includes: research practice.

• Research practice is conducted to support the implementation of projects and final qualification work, as well as to form ideas about the work, professional behavior and professional ethics of developers and researchers.

• The project and research work of undergraduates includes a research seminar, an interdisciplinary course work/project seminar, a project and the preparation of a final qualification work. The purpose of project and research work of students is to develop the ability to independently perform project and research work related to solving professional problems.

The main forms of organizing project and research work are research and project seminars and students ' work with supervisors on selected project and research topics aimed at solving current problems. in particular, students can choose projects using the University-wide project proposal service. Leading researchers and practitioners are involved in research and project seminars.

The "State final certification" block includes the graduation with the final qualification work (including preparation for the graduation procedure and the graduation procedure).
