🎯 About CIS 3XX – CIS Elective at Post
What does 'Elective credit' mean at Post University?
Elective credit fills the elective portion of a Post degree — credits required for graduation but not tied to a specific named course or general education category. Every Post degree program reserves a portion of total credits for electives, which gives students flexibility to round out their program.
How many elective credits do I need for my Post degree?
Post's degree programs each define an elective credit minimum within the total (60 credits for the Associate, 120 for the Bachelor's). The specific count varies by program. Check Post's current academic catalog for the exact elective credit requirement.
Can I use Introduction to Artificial Intelligence for Post electives even though it's a computer science course?
Yes. The Articulation Agreement explicitly recognizes UPI Study's Introduction to Artificial Intelligence as elective credit at Post, regardless of subject area. Post accepts transfer credit across disciplines as long as the credit comes from an approved provider with NCCRS or ACE recommendations.
How many UPI Study courses can I stack as electives at Post?
Up to the overall 25% transfer cap (30 credits for the Bachelor's). Post doesn't impose a separate elective cap beyond that, so you can stack multiple UPI Study elective courses as long as they fit within total transfer maximum and your program's elective requirement.
Is elective credit 'worth less' than named course credit?
No — credit is credit toward your Post degree. Elective credits count fully toward the 60-credit Associate or 120-credit Bachelor's total. The only difference is they fill the 'elective' bucket on your transcript rather than a specific named course. They have the same weight in graduation requirements.
🔄 About transferring to Post
How many UPI Study courses can I stack toward my Post degree?
Post University accepts up to 25% of degree credit requirements as transfer credit — up to 30 credits for the bachelor's degree. 68 UPI Study courses are recognized by Post under the Articulation Agreement, so you can stack a substantial portion of your degree before enrolling at Post.
Do I need to enroll at Post first?
No. You can take UPI Study courses with no Post enrollment, no application, and no admission process. Take the course, earn the credit, then submit your transcript to Post when you're ready.
How does the transcript reach Post?
Once you complete Introduction to Artificial Intelligence, UPI Study sends an official transcript in PDF format directly to the email address designated by Post University. Post's registrar applies the agreed equivalency (CIS 3XX – CIS Elective) to your transcript. No third-party services are involved.
About this course

Understanding Introduction to Artificial Intelligence for your Post credit.

What is Introduction to Artificial Intelligence?

Introduction to Artificial Intelligence is a course about how computer systems can perform tasks that normally require human judgment, such as searching for solutions, making decisions from data, recognizing patterns, and processing language. It covers the main ideas behind AI, including intelligent agents, machine learning, neural networks, logic, probability, and natural language processing, along with the history and limits of the field.

How the course teaches you

This self-paced online course uses video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading split as 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you finish and the transcript is sent to Post University, the course is reviewed as CIS 3XX – CIS Elective, which means it can count as elective credit in a Post degree plan.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course builds practical understanding of how AI systems search, classify, predict, and process language, which can support work in fields that use data and decision-making tools. At Post, that learning can fit into programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science by adding elective credit that helps move a degree plan forward.

Skills you walk away with

Explain core AI concepts, history, and major AI system typesAnalyze intelligent agents and AI search algorithmsWork with constraint satisfaction, Bayesian networks, and probabilistic reasoningApply supervised and unsupervised machine learning conceptsUse logical reasoning with propositional and first-order logicInterpret neural networks, deep learning, and natural language processing methodsEvaluate AI accuracy, precision, and ethical implications

Taking this course toward Post

After you complete the course, your transcript is sent for review and Post University applies it as CIS 3XX – CIS Elective if the course meets Post's transfer standards. Because Post recognizes this as an elective equivalency, it can be used to satisfy elective requirements and contribute to total credit hours in a program. Post accepts up to 30 transfer credits, which is 25% of a degree, so this course is one part of a larger transfer plan rather than a full replacement for Post coursework. For students in programs like the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, that elective credit can help keep the degree path organized while staying within Post's transfer ceiling.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit for students who want a Post elective that supports degree progress while learning the basics of artificial intelligence. It may suit working adults, transfer students, and career changers who need a course that can apply as CIS 3XX – CIS Elective, especially when they are planning within Post's 30-credit transfer limit. It is not a good match for someone who needs a major-specific computer science course rather than an elective.
