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.
Macroeconomics (Economics 252) is a 3-credit online course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. Your grade is weighted 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% final exam, so the cumulative exam carries the most weight. When you complete the course and your transcript shows the credit, that record is what UMT evaluates for its named equivalency, ECON 101 – Macroeconomics.
The course covers GDP, inflation, unemployment, growth, trade, and government policy, and it teaches you to read economic data and judge what it suggests about future conditions. Those skills apply directly to business planning, pricing decisions, and budgeting. At UMT, the credit can count toward programs such as the Associate of Business Administration and the Bachelor of Business Administration, where understanding how the broader economy affects a firm is useful in later coursework.
After you finish Economics 252, you request that your official transcript be sent to UMT. UMT's Office of Academic Affairs evaluates the credit against UMT course outcomes, with review by faculty or subject-matter experts, and the registrar then applies it as ECON 101 – Macroeconomics. That named equivalency maps to a specific catalog course, so it counts as a direct course match for your degree plan rather than an unassigned elective. Transfer credit from all sources is limited to 90 credits (75%), so this course uses part of that allowance, and you should check how many credits you have already transferred before enrolling.
This course suits students who want to finish a UMT business degree without paying to repeat a macroeconomics course, including working adults, people returning to school after a break, and career changers who need a recognized economics credit. Because UMT recognizes it as ECON 101 – Macroeconomics, the credit is not a generic elective, but UMT still caps transfer at 90 credits (75%), so the course is one part of a larger plan. It is not a good fit if you need a macroeconomics course taught live, if you want a microeconomics-focused path, or if you are unsure whether your target UMT program requires this course.
