About this course

Understanding Introduction to Psychology for your UMT credit.

What is Introduction to Psychology?

Introduction to Psychology is the study of how people think, feel, learn, and behave. It covers the main ideas and methods psychologists use to understand topics such as memory, development, sensation, consciousness, emotion, motivation, and mental health. You also learn how psychology developed as a field and how researchers study behavior and mental processes.

How the course teaches you

Introduction to Psychology is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, an assignment set, and a final exam. Quizzes count for 20% of the grade, assignments for 30%, and the final exam for 50%. Passing the course produces the transcript credit that UMT recognizes as PSY 100 – Psychology I, a named course equivalency in the UMT catalog.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course trains you to read claims about behavior with more care, including how memory, motivation, and learning work and how researchers test them. Those habits carry over into hiring decisions, managing teams, and everyday choices about habits and stress. For students heading into the Associate of Business Administration or the Bachelor of Business Administration at UMT, the credit gives a psychology foundation that an advisor can place within the degree plan.

Skills you walk away with

Explain major theories and historical developments in psychologyDescribe the structure and function of the nervous systemInterpret basic psychological research methodsApply classical and operant conditioning to real situationsAnalyze sensation, perception, sleep, and other states of consciousnessDiscuss memory, thinking, language, intelligence, emotion, and motivationRecognize major psychological disorders and common therapeutic approaches

Taking this course toward UMT

After you finish the course, request an official transcript from the institution and send it to UMT. UMT's Office of Academic Affairs reviews the credit against UMT course outcomes, with faculty or subject-matter experts involved, and applies it as PSY 100 – Psychology I when it is approved. Because this is a named equivalency, the credit appears under a specific UMT course code, which makes it easier to plan around in your degree audit. Transfer credit from all sources can total up to 90 credits at UMT, so count this course against that ceiling as you build your plan.

Who this course is for

This course suits adults who already have some college credit and want to reduce the number of courses they still need at UMT, including people returning to finish a degree or switching fields. Students who want a lower-cost route to a credit that UMT already recognizes will find the approach useful, since the course can account for up to 90 credits (75%) of transfer work. It is not a good fit for anyone who needs a live, instructor-led class, or who expects the credit to count toward a requirement that UMT's evaluation does not list.
