Introduction to Networking is a course about how computers and other devices connect, communicate, and share data. It covers the basic ideas behind networks such as LANs, WANs, WLANs, and VPNs, along with the standards and protocols that let information move reliably across them. You also learn how the Internet works at a basic level, including IP addressing, DNS, routing, and the OSI and TCP/IP models.
This self-paced course uses video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading set at 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you finish and your transcript is sent, Indiana Tech can recognize the credit as CS 1330 – Introduction to Networking, which is a named course equivalency rather than a general elective match.
At Indiana Tech, this credit can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Science and Bachelor of Science by giving you a direct fit for a networking requirement. The material also helps you understand how devices connect and how data moves, which is useful in work settings where you need to make sense of basic network terms, Internet access, and system connectivity.
After you complete the course, the transcript is sent for review and Indiana Tech’s registrar applies the credit according to the named equivalency, CS 1330 – Introduction to Networking. That matters because a named course equivalency can satisfy a specific place in your degree plan at Indiana Tech, rather than simply adding unused transfer credit. Indiana Tech accepts up to 90 transfer credits, which is 75% of a degree, so this course should be planned with the rest of your credits in mind. If you are working toward an Indiana Tech Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, this is the kind of transfer course that can move you closer to the right requirement.
This course is a good choice if you want a clear transfer path into Indiana Tech and need credit that maps to CS 1330 – Introduction to Networking, not just a broad elective. It can also work well if you are trying to stay within Indiana Tech’s 90-credit transfer ceiling while building toward a degree. It is not the best fit if you need advanced networking study or a course that covers more than introductory material.
Indiana Institute of Technology (Indiana Tech) is HLC-accredited and accepts transfer credit from both regionally and nationally accredited institutions. Curriculum-related coursework with a grade of C or better is considered for credit.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
