networking

“Think about all the people in other professions that are kind of invisible, thankless... your average plumber, for example. It turns out, the world is always gonna need plumbers. And yes, the cloud is always gonna need network plumbers, as long as data has to move from one location to the other.”

“Networking has survived ARCNET... Token Rings... IPX/SPX... IPv4... and it's gonna continue to do that. And as we change with it, it's an exciting way for us to understand more about how the world works... and remind people who seem to have forgotten that we still need to be around to make sure everything works.”

I can only think of one college that has an actual program focused on Network Engineering (UC Boulder). I know of a couple others that claim to, but churn out graduates who -may- understand STP if they’re lucky. 
It’s just not a focus in education.

I should be a little more specific: I’m only really aware of colleges in the US. I’d bet that both India and China have some colleges that offer network engineering as a focus.
