Introduction to Sociology is the study of how people live together in groups, how social rules and institutions shape behavior, and why societies develop patterns such as inequality, deviance, and cultural differences. It looks at everyday life through a social lens, asking how family, school, work, government, race, gender, and other forces influence individual choices and opportunities.
Introduction to Sociology is a self-paced online course built on video lessons, with quizzes and assignments along the way and a final exam at the end. Your grade is weighted 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% final exam, so the final exam has the largest effect on your result. Once you complete the course, the 3-credit Sociology 110 entry on your transcript is the record UMT evaluates against its SOC 100 – Sociology I course.
The course teaches you to look at ordinary situations, such as how a workplace, a school, or a family shapes what people do, and to explain those patterns with evidence. That habit carries into management work, where understanding how groups and institutions influence behavior helps with teams, customers, and policy decisions. At UMT, the credit is part of the coursework that can count toward the Associate of Business Administration or the Bachelor of Business Administration, so it supports a business path rather than sitting apart from it.
After you finish the course, the completed Sociology 110 credit can be sent to UMT as part of your transcript. UMT's Office of Academic Affairs evaluates the credit against UMT course outcomes, with review by faculty or subject-matter experts, and recognizes it as SOC 100 – Sociology I. That named recognition means the credit maps to a specific course in UMT's catalog, which makes it easier to place in your degree plan than a general elective. UMT accepts up to 90 credits (75%) in transfer, so this course counts toward that total along with any other transfer or prior learning credit you bring in.
This course suits students who want to earn university credit at a lower cost before transferring to UMT, including working adults who are fitting study around a job and people returning to finish a degree. Because the credit maps to a named equivalency, SOC 100 – Sociology I, it carries stronger recognition than a general elective credit. Keep the 90-credit (75%) transfer ceiling in mind, since credit beyond that limit will not transfer. It is not the right choice if you need a course that is not part of your UMT plan, or if you expect this credit to replace a course UMT has not listed as an equivalent.
