About this course

Understanding Macroeconomics for your TESU credit.

What is Macroeconomics?

Macroeconomics studies the economy as a whole rather than individual buyers or firms. It looks at topics such as GDP, inflation, unemployment, economic growth, trade, and the effects of government policy on overall economic conditions. The course also compares major ways economists explain the economy, including Keynesian and neoclassical perspectives.

How the course teaches you

Macroeconomics (Economics 252) is taken online and at your own pace, with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam weighted 20% Quizzes, 30% Assignments, and 50% Final Exam. When you finish, the transcripted credit can be sent to Thomas Edison State University, where it is recognized as ECO-1110 – Macroeconomics, a named course equivalency in the TESU catalog.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course builds practical understanding of GDP, inflation, unemployment, trade, and government policy, which are useful when you are reading economic news or making financial decisions. At TESU, that credit can fit into programs such as the Associate of Arts or Bachelor of Arts, where ECO-1110 – Macroeconomics may support degree progress in a clear, cataloged way.

Skills you walk away with

Taking this course toward TESU

After you complete the course, the transcript can be sent to Thomas Edison State University for review. TESU's registrar applies the named equivalency ECO-1110 – Macroeconomics, which means the credit is matched to a specific catalog course rather than treated as an unspecified elective. That makes it easier to place the course in a TESU degree plan for programs like the Associate of Arts or Bachelor of Arts, while keeping in mind that TESU allows up to 90 transfer credits, or 75% of a degree. TESU also has a flexible transfer policy and accepts ACE and NCCRS credit recommendations, so this course fits within a transfer-friendly system.

Who this course is for

This course is a good fit for students planning to use transfer credit at Thomas Edison State University and who want a specific course match rather than a vague elective. It can work well for adults finishing a degree or students building toward a TESU program while keeping an eye on the 90-credit transfer limit. It is less useful if you need a course that is already part of a fixed on-campus sequence and cannot be applied through TESU's transfer process.
