Dr Kapilan Radhakrishnan PhD, M.Sc, PGCE, B.E, CCAI, CCNA

I have lead the computer networks team since September 2011. I use my knowledge, experience, and industrial contacts to bring changes to the programme to suit current industry standards. I am the main contact for School’s Cisco Academy, Academy Support Centre, and Instructor Training Centre. 

Fellow of the Higher Education Academy

Some of the other modules I have taught over  the past few years include:

• Implementing IP Routing and Switching (Masters)
• Advanced Routing
• Local Area Networks
• Computer Network Architecture
• IP Internetworking
• Internet Security
• Wide Area Networks
• Network Management

As part of Cisco Academy programme, I teach CCNA course to part-time students in the evenings. I am currently supervising one full-time PhD student and number of Masters and undergraduate students. 

Current personal research interests include

• Routing
• Performance Evaluation
• Voice over IP
• IPTV
• Random Neural Networks
• Quality of Service (QoS)
• LTE networks
• IPv6

I am a Cisco Certified Network Associate (CCNA) and a Cisco Certified Academy Instructor (CCAI). I am also a reviewer for Scientific-professional Journal Tehnički vjesnik/Technical Gazette.
