It depends on the scope of the project and what you're school is requiring. A PIC32 can handle 100BASETX traffic but not much more than that, and even then it's not an industry standard to my knowledge. I can probably provide better ideas if I have an idea of the project requirements.

For example, my Sr. Design that I completed last year for a Computer Engineering degree was I built a flight computer for a drone; the requirement was the project needed a micro-controller to control some kind of physical system with a closed-loop control scheme. One thing we never got to work on it was the air-to-ground communication for our telemetry; that's one possible idea for you.

EDIT: I'm assuming the reason why you mentioned Arduino and PIC is because your school probably already has Arduino's and programmers for the PICs on-hand, as is the case with the school I graduated from. In whichever case, you might look into a Xilinx FPGA for telecom and see if your school is willing to get the environment setup.
