Yes. UPI Study's agreement with University of Management and Technology lists UPI Study's Introduction to Java as UMT's CST 222 – Programming in Java, a named course, not just elective or general-education credit. The credit posts to your UMT transcript once UPI Study sends the official transcript.
Will this transfer with full named-course credit, or just as elective?
Named-course credit. UPI Study's agreement with University of Management and Technology lists Introduction to Java as CST 222 – Programming in Java, so it meets that course requirement on your UMT transcript, not a generic elective slot.
What if I've already taken CST 222 – Programming in Java at UMT or elsewhere?
If you've already received credit for CST 222 – Programming in Java, UMT typically applies UPI Study's Introduction to Java as elective credit instead (at the registrar's discretion). Check with your UMT advisor before enrolling to confirm placement.

About this course

Understanding Introduction to Java for your UMT credit.

What is Introduction to Java?

Introduction to Java is a first course in computer programming using the Java language. It teaches you how to write simple programs, use variables and data types, make decisions with conditionals, repeat tasks with loops, and organize code into functions and classes. It also introduces basic problem solving, arrays, input and output, and the foundations of object-oriented programming.

How the course teaches you

Introduction to Java is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam, with each component weighted at 25%, alongside attendance. You set your own pace through the material, but you still have to complete each graded piece to earn the credit. Passing the course produces a transcript entry that UMT evaluates as CST 222 – Programming in Java.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course teaches you to write, test, and debug small Java programs, work with variables, conditionals, loops, and arrays, and organize code into functions and classes. Those skills apply to data-handling tasks, automation, and working with software teams, which matter in business roles covered by UMT's Associate of Business Administration and Bachelor of Business Administration. Where the credit fits within either degree depends on that program's requirements, so confirm placement with an advisor before you enroll.

Skills you walk away with

Write and debug basic Java programsUse built-in data types and variablesApply conditionals and loops to control program flowWork with arrays and simple data structuresOrganize code with functions and modular designBuild basic object-oriented Java classesHandle input/output and simple GUI elements

Taking this course toward UMT

After you finish the course, send your official transcript to UMT so the Office of Academic Affairs can review it. Its evaluation is checked against UMT course outcomes, with review by faculty or subject-matter experts. If the credit is accepted, it is recorded as CST 222 – Programming in Java, a named equivalency that matches a specific catalog course rather than a generic elective. Transfer credit from all sources may total up to 90 credits, or 75% of the degree, so plan your remaining coursework with that limit in mind.

Who this course is for

This course suits adults who are returning to school while working, students finishing a degree who need one more technical credit, and career changers who want a recognized first programming course at a lower cost than a traditional classroom sequence. Because CST 222 – Programming in Java is a named course equivalency at UMT, the credit carries stronger recognition than a general elective, and it counts toward UMT's 90-credit transfer ceiling, which is 75% of the degree. It is not a good fit if you need a live, instructor-paced class, or if you already have a comparable programming course on your record and do not need a second one.
