What exactly is syndicated finance?

Hi everyone, I am a freshman at a nontarget and I have an informational interview with an alum whose LinkedIn said they're an investment banking VP. Their email signature said they worked in "syndicated finance" though and I wasn't quite sure what that meant. Is this LevFin or DCM or something different? I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, I am a bit confused and I just want to prep as much as I can pre-call so I don't sound like an idiot.
