About this course

Understanding Advanced Social Psychology for your DSU credit.

What is Advanced Social Psychology?

Advanced Social Psychology studies how people think about, influence, and relate to one another in social settings. It looks at topics such as attitudes, persuasion, prejudice, conformity, identity, and group behavior, with an emphasis on how these processes shape everyday actions and decisions.

How the course teaches you

Advanced Social Psychology (Psychology 310, 3 credits) is a self-paced online course built on video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. Each of the four components counts for 25% of the grade: attendance, quizzes, assignments, and the final exam. Once you pass, the completed course appears on your transcript, and Dunlap-Stone University recognizes it as its named equivalent, PSY-301 – Social Psychology.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course covers attitudes, persuasion, prejudice, conformity, identity, and group behavior, and it teaches you to apply social cognition and group dynamics theories to real situations. Those skills carry into hiring, team management, marketing, and client work, which makes the credit useful in Associate of Arts: Business Administration and Bachelor of Business Administration programs at DSU. For students in the Bachelor of Arts: Psychology, the same credit adds a directly relevant upper-level foundation.

Skills you walk away with

Analyze attitudes, persuasion, and behaviorExplain social cognition and common heuristicsIdentify cognitive bias and dissonanceApply social identity and group dynamics theoriesRecognize prejudice, stereotyping, and discriminationEvaluate research on conformity, compliance, and obedienceCommunicate social psychology concepts clearly in writing

Taking this course toward DSU

After you complete the course, your transcript is sent to Dunlap-Stone University. DSU's registrar then applies the credit as PSY-301 – Social Psychology, which is the strongest form of transfer recognition the university offers. In your degree plan, that means the requirement is met by a specific catalog course rather than a general elective slot. Transfer credit at DSU is capped at 90 credits, or 75% of a degree, so plan your remaining coursework with that ceiling in mind.

Who this course is for

This course suits working adults, degree-finishers, career changers, and cost-conscious students who want a recognized psychology credit without paying DSU's $475 per-credit rate for it. Because the course maps to PSY-301 – Social Psychology, it arrives as a named equivalency rather than a general placeholder. Keep in mind that transfer is capped at 90 credits (75%), so students who have already used that allowance elsewhere will gain nothing from it. It is not a good fit for anyone who needs a DSU-specific course or who expects this credit to satisfy a requirement outside the programs and categories listed.
