Principles of Management is the study of how organizations are planned, organized, led, and improved. It introduces the work managers do, the difference between management and leadership, and the main ideas that have shaped modern business practice. Students also learn how teams, structure, and change affect how an organization performs.
Principles of Management is delivered as a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, attendance, and a final exam. The grade is divided as 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When the course is completed, the transcript can be evaluated by Columbia Southern University as MGT 2302 – Introduction to Management, a named course equivalency in CSU’s catalog.
The course builds practical management knowledge that can support students moving into CSU programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science. At CSU, having MGT 2302 – Introduction to Management on the transcript can help students make progress in a degree plan that includes management-related coursework. The material is useful for understanding teams, structure, leadership, and change in work settings.
After completion, the transcript is sent for review and Columbia Southern University applies the credit as MGT 2302 – Introduction to Management when the course matches their equivalency. Because this is a named recognition, it gives students a specific management course in the CSU degree plan rather than a general transfer placeholder. That can matter when mapping requirements for CSU programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science. CSU allows up to 90 transfer credits, or 75% of a degree, so students should still plan the rest of their coursework around that ceiling.
This course is a good fit for students planning to transfer to Columbia Southern University and who want a clearly named equivalency rather than an uncertain elective match. It can work well for people trying to stay within CSU’s transfer limit of up to 90 credits, or for students who want to preserve room in an Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science plan. It is not the best choice for someone who needs a different subject area at CSU or who is not seeking MGT 2302 – Introduction to Management credit.
