Intro to Biology 1 is an introduction to how living things are built, how they work, and how scientists study them. It covers the basic chemistry of life, cells, energy use, genetics, and the processes that allow organisms to grow, reproduce, and respond to their environment.
Intro to Biology 1 is delivered as a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam weighted 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignments, and 50% Final Exam. When you finish, the transcript can be sent for transfer review, and Indiana Tech may record it as BIO 1000 – Introduction to Biology I, which is a named course equivalency in the catalog.
The course builds a practical base in biology that can support later study in Indiana Tech programs such as the Associate of Science and Bachelor of Science. Because Indiana Tech recognizes it as BIO 1000 – Introduction to Biology I, the credit can fit into a degree plan instead of remaining an extra course on your transcript.
After you complete the course, your transcript is sent to Indiana Tech for review. Indiana Tech’s registrar applies the credit as BIO 1000 – Introduction to Biology I when the course is accepted, and that named equivalency means it maps directly to a specific catalog course rather than counting as an unspecified elective. For degree planning at Indiana Tech, that can make the credit easier to place in programs like the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science. Indiana Tech accepts up to 90 transfer credits, so this course can be part of a larger transfer plan within that limit.
This course is a good fit for students who want a clear path into Indiana Tech and need a biology course that can be evaluated as BIO 1000 – Introduction to Biology I. It is also useful for students watching total transfer hours, since Indiana Tech allows up to 90 credits, or 75%, to transfer. It is not the best choice for someone who needs a course that is guaranteed to count without Indiana Tech’s transfer review or for a student who already has the equivalent course on record.
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.
Enroll for $250 (or use a UPI Study subscription), finish in 28–30 days, and transfer 3 credits to Indiana Tech.
