Programs

Build the Infrastructure Behind Modern Commercial and Government Technology

Start with Systems Engineering. Add specialized programs in observability, lifecycle management, automation, cybersecurity, cloud, data, streaming, reliability, and enterprise architecture.

Request Program Information

Foundation program

Systems Engineer/Administrator Program

One program, five phases. The emphasis is enterprise Linux systems administration and engineering — Red Hat Enterprise Linux in particular — with Windows Server and Active Directory administration as an essential complementary skill set. Students build, administer, secure, automate, and troubleshoot a realistic multi-server enterprise environment.

This is the recommended starting point and the prerequisite for the advanced specializations below.

Advanced specializations

Fifteen Specialized Infrastructure Programs

Each specialization extends the same Urban-Stream lab — a simulated enterprise training environment built by Mobile ITT Solutions.

Advanced program schedules, tuition, prerequisites, and delivery options will be announced as cohorts are opened.

Operational Control

Splunk Observability, SIEM and SOC Operations

Onboard machine data, build searches and dashboards, and operate security monitoring and incident workflows.

Adds to the Urban-Stream lab
Adds centralized indexing, dashboards, alerting, and a security operations view across the Urban-Stream environment.
