Graduate Certificate in Advanced Water Systems Operations and Management (Co-op) and Graduate Certificate in Wireless Information Networking (Bundle Program)

Program Overview

Advanced Water Systems Operations and Management 
The Advanced Water Systems Operation and Management program will prepare graduates to work in water treatment, water distribution, and wastewater treatment, related work in industry, as well as inspection or enforcement.

Program Highlights
The operation and management of water and wastewater treatment systems to safeguard against water-borne diseases, and ensure a healthy environment in an efficient and sustainable manner are paramount in both public and private sector industries. The provision of potable water and the effective treatment of the municipal and industrial wastewater streams are growing fields in the environmental sector. The Ontario government has passed into law rigorous training requirements for water and wastewater treatment operators, in response to recommendations made in the Walkerton Commission of Inquiry reports. Under the Safe Water Drinking Act, operators require training and certification to run these systems safely. This one-year Graduate Certificate program in Advanced Water Systems Operations and Management will provide you with:

  • The opportunity to do real, hands-on manipulation of equipment and data collection, learning about water systems operation in our labs and wet-work facilities.
  • Faculty expertise to guide you in understanding government regulations on the treatment of water and wastewater in this highly regulated and changing industry.
  • The knowledge needed to pass the Ministry of Environment Licensing and Certification exams for Water and Wastewater Operators.
  • Project management skills, essential to your success in this field.
  • Critical thinking and troubleshooting skills required to respond to emergency or non-routine situations as an operator or supervisor in this challenging field.
  • Health and Safety knowledge and awareness training to assist graduates in a safe working career and progression into management roles.
  • The knowledge and practical expertise to assist and lead organizations and government agencies in the provision of drinking water and the treatment of wastewater.

Wireless Information Networking

There is a high demand for graduates who can develop and implement solutions for the configuration and integration of wireless devices and networks with wired networks in this growing technology sector.

Program Highlights
Networks, and increasingly wireless networks, are becoming the hub of commercial and industrial development across the world as we understand and experience the benefits of wireless networking for day to day functions, including:

  • Operations monitoring and control
  • Communications within and between organizations
  • Information sharing within and between organizations
  • Mobile real time accounting and cost control
  • Real time sales support and marketing

At the heart of the wireless world is Wireless Information Networking (WIN), and the growing need for professionals who can develop and implement solutions for the configuration and integration of wireless devices.

Capturing data from wireless sensors or wireless synching of mobile devices within secure environments are only a couple of the types of wireless information networking challenges facing businesses, government and organizations today that this program addresses.

Building on the success of our Computer Engineering, Security, and Instrumentation and Control Diplomas, this intensive, unique Graduate Certificate program reflects the latest developments in WIN and relies heavily on applied teaching approaches. It focuses on the design, planning, implementation, operation and troubleshooting of wireless networks, and will cover a wide range of topics including:

  • Cloud computing
  • Server technology
  • Technical project management throughout technology life cycles
  • Technology as a service - preventing network wide service outages
  • Domestic vs. commercial/industrial needs
  • Data mining
  • Wireless LAN and WAN setup, security and troubleshooting
  • Embedded wireless sensor network programming
  • VOIP
  • 802.11 (a, b and g) technologies
  • Vendor interoperability strategies
  • Emerging wireless technologies
