UoPeople is tuition-free, but charges a $120 per-course assessment fee for undergraduate courses. Savings = transferred credits × $40 (the per-credit equivalent of UoPeople's $120 assessment fee for a 3-credit course). UoPeople credit awards subject to their evaluation policy.
Principles of Management is the study of how organizations are planned, organized, led, and improved. It introduces the work managers do, the difference between management and leadership, and the main ideas that have shaped modern business practice. Students also learn how teams, structure, and change affect how an organization performs.
This 3-credit course is organized around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, attendance, and a final exam, with grading set at 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. When you finish and send your transcript to University of the People, the completed course is evaluated as BUS 1101 – Principles of Business Management, a named course equivalency that matches a specific catalog course.
The course gives you a practical framework for understanding how organizations are led, structured, and improved, which can help in supervisory work, team settings, and planning for change. At University of the People, that credit can apply within programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, where BUS 1101 – Principles of Business Management may support progress in the degree plan.
After you complete the course, your transcript is sent to University of the People for evaluation. UoPeople reviews the record and applies BUS 1101 – Principles of Business Management as the named equivalency, which means the credit is tied to a specific course in its catalog rather than treated as an undefined elective. That matters because it can slot directly into an Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science plan where the course is required or useful. Even with that recognition, UoPeople’s transfer ceiling remains 90 credits, or 75% of the degree.
This course is a good fit if you are building toward University of the People and want a clear, named transfer result rather than a loose elective match. It is especially useful for students who want to use transfer credit efficiently, since UoPeople allows up to 90 credits, or 75%, to transfer. It may not be the best choice if you are looking for a course outside business foundations or if you do not need BUS 1101 – Principles of Business Management in your UoPeople plan.
University of the People is the world's first non-profit, tuition-free, WASC-accredited online university. Its team evaluates your transcript for you, and you only pay a small per-course assessment fee — no tuition.
Transfer credits are never guaranteed. Final credit awards are determined solely by the receiving university's registrar.
