🎯 About General Elective at Woodmont
What does 'Elective credit' mean at Woodmont College?
Elective credit fills the elective portion of a Woodmont degree — credits required for graduation but not tied to a specific named course or general education category. Every Woodmont degree program reserves a portion of total credits for electives, which gives students flexibility to round out their program.
How many elective credits do I need for my Woodmont degree?
Woodmont's degree programs each define an elective credit minimum within the total (60 credits for the Associate, 120 for the Bachelor's). The specific count varies by program. Check Woodmont's current academic catalog for the exact elective credit requirement.
Can I use Ethics in Technology for Woodmont electives even though it's a computer science course?
Yes. UPI Study's agreement with Woodmont College lists UPI Study's Ethics in Technology as General Elective at Woodmont, whatever its subject area. The credit posts to your Woodmont transcript once UPI Study sends the official transcript.
How many UPI Study courses can I stack as electives at Woodmont?
Up to the overall 70% transfer cap (84 credits for the Bachelor's). Woodmont doesn't impose a separate elective cap beyond that, so you can stack multiple UPI Study elective courses as long as they fit within total transfer maximum and your program's elective requirement.
Is elective credit 'worth less' than named course credit?
No — credit is credit toward your Woodmont degree. Elective credits count fully toward the 60-credit Associate or 120-credit Bachelor's total. The only difference is they fill the 'elective' bucket on your transcript rather than a specific named course. They have the same weight in graduation requirements.

About this course

Understanding Ethics in Technology for your Woodmont credit.

What is Ethics in Technology?

Ethics in Technology looks at how computers, data, networks, and digital systems affect people, businesses, and society. It covers both the technical side of cybersecurity and the ethical and legal questions that come with privacy, cybercrime, data use, and emerging technologies like AI and IoT.

How the course teaches you

Ethics in Technology is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, an assignment, and a final exam. Your final grade is weighted 25% Attendance, 25% Quizzes, 25% Assignments, and 25% Final Exam. Once the course is completed and the grade posts to your transcript, the 3 credits transfer to Woodmont College as a General Elective, which counts toward total credit hours and elective requirements.

How it helps beyond the classroom

The course examines how data, networks, and digital systems affect people and organizations, covering topics such as privacy law, phishing, social engineering, encryption, and the ethical questions raised by AI and IoT. At Woodmont, that knowledge lands as an elective that can sit alongside coursework in the BS in Technology, BS in Business, or BS in Psychology. A student in any of those programs who understands data risk and digital rights brings a practical perspective to their work.

Skills you walk away with

Explain the CIA Triad and basic cybersecurity conceptsIdentify privacy, cybercrime, and digital rights issuesAnalyze data mining and Big Data ethicsEvaluate network security, firewalls, VPNs, and encryption methodsRecognize malware, phishing, and social engineering tacticsAssess database and cloud security risksApply legal and ethical reasoning to technology use

Taking this course toward Woodmont

After you finish the course, UPI Study sends your transcript to Woodmont College. Woodmont's registrar applies the course as a General Elective under the signed articulation agreement, and the 3 credits then count toward your total credit hours and elective requirements. Because it is an elective equivalency rather than a named course, it will not replace a specific requirement in your degree plan, so review the remaining requirements with a Woodmont advisor. Woodmont accepts up to 84 credits (70%) in transfer, and this course draws from that total.

Who this course is for

This course suits students who already have college credit and want to finish a Woodmont degree without repeating material they have covered elsewhere, including working adults returning to school and people moving into technology or business roles. Because Woodmont recognizes it only as a General Elective, it fills an elective slot rather than a specific major requirement, so students who need a particular technical course should check their degree audit first. It is probably not the right choice for someone who wants a live, instructor-led classroom, since the format is self-paced, or for anyone counting on it to satisfy a named requirement in their program.
