Microeconomics is the study of how individuals, households, and businesses make choices when resources are limited. It focuses on topics like supply and demand, prices, consumer behavior, production costs, and how markets respond to government rules, taxes, and competition. In this course, you learn how these decisions shape everyday markets such as labor, goods, and financial services.
The course is self-paced and online. You work through video lessons on your own schedule, complete the quizzes and the assignments, and then sit for the final exam. Grades are weighted 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% final exam, so the exam carries the most weight. Once you complete the course, the credit posts to your transcript, and UMT recognizes it as ECON 100 – Microeconomics.
Microeconomics gives you a working method for reading prices, costs, and competition, and for judging how taxes, trade rules, and antitrust law change what a business can do. At UMT, this material transfers as ECON 100 – Microeconomics, which can apply toward economics and business decision-making coursework in programs such as the Associate of Business Administration and the Bachelor of Business Administration.
After you finish, your transcript is sent to UMT, and UMT's registrar applies the credit as ECON 100 – Microeconomics. Because this is a named course equivalency, the credit maps to a specific catalog course code and can be placed in your degree plan as that course, not as unassigned elective hours. UMT's Office of Academic Affairs evaluates transfer credit against UMT course outcomes, with review by faculty or subject-matter experts. Transfer credit is limited to 90 credits (75%), according to UMT's 2026-27 University Catalog.
This course suits people who already have college credit and want to finish a UMT business degree without repeating a principles course they have covered elsewhere. That includes working adults fitting study around a job and cost-conscious students who want to reduce what they pay at UMT's rate of $390 per credit. Because UMT recognizes it as a named equivalency to ECON 100, it carries more weight in degree planning than general elective credit would, and it counts toward the 90-credit transfer limit (75%). It is not a good fit if you need a live, instructor-led class or if you do not plan to transfer to UMT, since its named recognition only matters there.
