About this course

Understanding Medical Terminology for your Indiana Tech credit.

What is Medical Terminology?

Medical Terminology is the study of the words used in healthcare to describe the body, diseases, procedures, tests, and treatments. It focuses on how medical terms are built from prefixes, suffixes, and root words, so you can understand what a term means even if you have never seen it before. The course also introduces common abbreviations and the language used across major body systems.

How the course teaches you

Medical Terminology is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading divided into 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you complete the course and an official transcript is sent, Indiana Tech can recognize it as HIT 1100 – Medical Terminology, a named course equivalency that matches a specific catalog course.

How it helps beyond the classroom

At Indiana Tech, this credit can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, where medical vocabulary is useful in health-related study and in reading clinical material. The terminology itself helps with understanding diagnoses, procedures, and documentation, which can make later coursework and workplace communication more manageable.
