- The curricular unit “Computer Networks II” aims to deepen and complement the knowledge acquired in “Computer Networks I”, exploring technologies, protocols, and network services applied to corporate and enterprise contexts. The focus is on the analysis, configuration, and management of network solutions, as well as on the adoption of industry best practices and the understanding of emerging technological trends. Throughout the unit, routing protocols, network services, and distributed applications will be addressed, alongside programmable networks, network function virtualization, next-generation network architectures, and integrated service management. A practical case study of a Web application will also be developed, covering the entire constructive process.

- The teaching methodologies are based on two aspects, namely: Theoretical-practical classes: Interactive method, using a board and pen and computer/internet/projector, interspersed with situations of dialogue with students aimed at developing solutions, critical thinking and the ability to formulate concepts. Practical classes: Complementing the guidelines given in the initial classes, while students try to solve problems on their own, discussion of possible solutions, presentation of a final solution. Most classes in electronics lab. The assessment comprises: pre-project, presentation and a complementary opportunity to correct errors under guardianship, with limited improvement in grades.

- In newly constructed buildings or those undergoing renovations, the installation of telecommunications infrastructure is mandatory. These facilities are regulated by the ITED Manual, issued by ANACOM. The objective of this course is to equip students with knowledge of the rules that must be followed in the design and installation of ITED. Students must learn to solve the problems that arise during the physical installation of ITED in the topography of various types of buildings, which are generally different and require tailored solutions. Therefore, the practical component of the project is essential. On the other hand, the construction of the ITED is also important in ensuring the project's objectives and directing the various tasks to be performed according to "good practice." Here, the practical component is equally important.
