Savings estimate compares Post University's $629/credit online undergraduate rate against UPI Study course pricing. Post requires a 73% grade to accept a UPI course; UPI credit applies to General Education requirements only (not Major, Core, Concentration, or Minor). Maximum UPI transfer: 15 credits into an associate's, 30 into a bachelor's. Final credit awards are determined solely by Post University's registrar.
Current Trends in Computer Science and IT is a broad introduction to how modern information technology is used in organizations. It covers both the technical side, such as databases, SQL, application design, and data analytics, and the managerial side, such as IT leadership, decision support systems, and how technology supports business strategy. The course also introduces newer areas like artificial intelligence, machine learning, IoT, big data, and blockchain, with attention to their practical uses and limitations.
Current Trends in Computer Science and IT is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with grading split evenly across Attendance, Quizzes, Assignments, and the Final Exam at 25% each. When you complete the course and meet the 73% (C) minimum, the transcript can be reviewed by Post University and recognized as GEN 1XX – General Elective (Post).
The course gives you a practical overview of how technology supports organizations, from databases and SQL to AI, IoT, and data analytics, which can help in workplace settings where technology decisions affect daily operations. At Post, the credit applies as a general elective, so it can support degree progress in programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science without forcing you into a major-specific course path.
After you finish the course, the transcript is sent for review and Post University's registrar applies the credit as GEN 1XX – General Elective (Post) if the grade requirement is met. That means the course counts as elective credit in the degree plan, helping you move closer to completion without replacing a required major course. Because Post allows up to 30 transfer credits, this course can be one part of the transfer total, not the whole plan. Post is NECHE-accredited and accepts UPI Study's ACE & NCCRS-recommended courses for General Education transfer credit.
This course is a good fit if you are building credit toward Post and want an elective that can count toward total credit hours and elective requirements. It may suit students who need flexible transfer credit within Post's 30-credit maximum, especially if they are trying to stay on track in an Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science program. It is not the best choice if you need a course that fills a specific major requirement rather than a general elective.
Post University is NECHE-accredited and accepts UPI Study's ACE & NCCRS-recommended courses for General Education transfer credit. A 73% (C) grade or better is required for a course to transfer.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
