WPA2 Enterprise support is landed in artful already:

[ Jeremy Soller ]
* Add support for WPA2 Enterprise.
** Also affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu Xenial)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu)
Status: Triaged => Fix Released
** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu Xenial)
Status: New => In Progress
** Description changed:
+ [Impact]
+ In some installations, WPA2 Enterprise support is required to have access to
the network to complete the installation.
+
+ [Test cases]
+ 1) Start installer from ubuntu-desktop image.
+ 2) Follow the prompts to connect to the wireless network
+ 3) Validate that a new dialog appears asking for the network password or
credentials.
+
+ [Regression potential]
+ This impacts all wireless connections and so the type of regression to look
for in general failure to connect to a secured wireless network when the
authentication settings are correct (pre-shared key is correct), or in cases of
connecting to an unsecured network.

Ubiquity doesn't appear to support WPA-Enterprise wifi networks --
there's just a single textbox shown to enter a passphrase, but most WPA-
Enterprise will require at least a specific username and password, and
possibly certificates.
NM should already export this information on DBus, it should be a matter
of using libnm-gtk to query the user for the connection information
rather than prompting for it directly from the installer.
<http://goo.gl/2iqv6j>: "If the selected network does require
authentication, Network Manager’s standard dialog should open for you to
enter those authentication details as soon as you choose “Connect…”."
(Not to be confused with bug 1018160, about WEP networks.)
