Higher Education
As higher education becomes increasingly individualized, technology meets the demand. In-person and online learning experiences are made possible through resilient networks and advanced audio-visual systems. Student residences are secured and connected 24/7.
DES is an approved contractor for top-tier universities in Western Pennsylvania including Carnegie Mellon, Univeristy of Pittsburgh and Duquesne University.
“This facility gives our students an advantage. They learn and then walk across the hall and work in a real, live security operations center. The hands-on experience is invaluable.”
– JEANETTE BRITT, CIO & VP OF TECHNOLOGY - MERCYHURST UNIVERSITY
