    A student is appealing the denial of a request to transfer credit for a network security course taken at Capitol College. The student took IAE 670 Network Systems Security Concepts in the summer of 2013 and is requesting it fulfill the requirement for INFA 620 Network and Internet Security at UMUC. The student argues the course contents were similar, covering topics like host hardening, firewalls, authentication and authorization. Course descriptions and syllabus for both classes are enclosed to support that the content, while having different names, was equally similar. The student looks forward to a reconsideration of the appeal.

    Subject: Transfer Credit Appeal
    Dear Office of Advising:
    It is with the upmost respect that I write to request an appeal in the denial of my transfer credit of
    Course IAE 670 Network Systems Security Concepts from Capitol College taken the summer
    term (June 24 thru August 16) of 2013. I had originally submitted my request on March 24, 2014
    to the Office of Student Affairs. Since that time I had anxiously awaited a decision in regards to
    the status of my transfer request and submitted several inquiries regarding it. On August 13,
    2014 I received notification that this request would not be granted.
    After taking the IAE 670 course I find that a considerable amount of the content discussed during
    the course of the semester is quite similar to the description outlined for course INFA 620. The
    course covered many topics to include host operating hardening, firewalls, network security,
    defense methods and authentication and authorization controls. All of which are outlined in the
    course description for the INFA 620 Network and Internet Security class. I also created a
    security policy as an assignment during the course; a topic that is also mentioned in the
    description of INFA 620.
    Enclosed you will find a copy of the course description for both the IAE 670 and INFA 620
    courses as well as the syllabus. It is my hope that you will agree that aside from the similarities
    in name, the content is equally similar and grant my appeal request.
    Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to hearing from you.
    Sincerely,

    UMUC Course Description Network and Internet Security (INFA 620)

    An introduction to the security concepts needed for the design, use, and implementation of
    secure voice and data communications networks, including the Internet. A brief review of
    networking technology and standards (including an introduction to Internet communication
    protocols) is provided. Security subjects addressed include defense models, security policy
    development, authentication and authorization controls, firewalls, packet filtering, virtual private
    networks (VPNs), and wireless network security. A specific project on network security in a
    hypothetical scenario based on the inputs from government agencies and commercial
    organizations is assessed by a team of experts who are working in the field.
