About this course

Understanding Psychology of Diversity for your Nexford credit.

What is Psychology of Diversity?

Psychology of Diversity looks at how people understand and respond to differences in culture, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, and ideology. It also examines how stereotypes, prejudice, discrimination, and bias develop, and how psychologists study those patterns across groups and settings.

How the course teaches you

Psychology of Diversity is delivered as a structured online course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, and the grade is based on 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you complete it and your transcript is issued, Nexford University can review it as a transfer course and recognize it as Social and Behavioral Science Elective (Gen Ed), which counts toward a general-education requirement.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course gives you a framework for understanding bias, prejudice, and cultural differences, which is useful in workplaces and communities where people have different backgrounds and perspectives. At Nexford, that credit can sit inside degree planning for programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or Bachelor of Business Administration, helping you move a gen-ed requirement forward while building skills that support inclusive communication.

Skills you walk away with

Analyze prejudice and discrimination theoriesIdentify social identity and categorization processesApply bias-reduction strategiesInterpret cross-cultural psychology researchUse cultural competence in diverse settingsRecognize stereotypes, racism, sexism, and ageismCommunicate effectively in diverse communities

Taking this course toward Nexford

After you finish the course, your transcript is sent for review and Nexford University applies it according to its transfer process. If accepted, Nexford records it as Social and Behavioral Science Elective (Gen Ed), which means it can satisfy a general-education slot in your degree plan rather than being treated as an unrelated elective. That matters because Nexford is a DEAC-accredited transfer partner with a free, no-obligation transfer credit evaluation and a maximum transfer allowance of 90 credits, or 75% of an undergraduate program. For students in programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or Bachelor of Business Administration, this can help preserve room for remaining Nexford coursework within the transfer ceiling.

Who this course is for

This course is a practical choice for students who want to complete transferable general-education work before or during a Nexford degree, especially if they are balancing school with work or trying to keep costs predictable at Nexford's $136 per-credit context. It also fits students who want a Social and Behavioral Science Elective (Gen Ed) that may apply toward Nexford's transfer-friendly degree path, where up to 90 credits or 75% of an undergraduate program may transfer. It is not the best fit for someone who needs a highly specialized major course rather than a general-education elective.
