Is a business management degree a BA or BS?

Answer 1

A business management degree can be offered as a bachelor of arts, a bachelor of science, or a bachelor's in business degree. This varies from school to school.

BA/BS, DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE DEGREES

Background: in 1984, the Academic Senate Curriculum Committee was asked to prepare a policy statement which would differentiate between Bachelor of Science degrees and Bachelor of Arts degrees at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. The need for this arose when some departments at Cal Poly proposed to change their BA degrees to B.S. degrees. The requests were refused by the Chancellor's Office in part because Cal Poly, SLO, had no campus policy which specified the differences between the two degrees.

1. Both The Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of Science degrees should have a reasonable balance of three components:

• A major providing depth of preparation in an academic or professional field.
• General education providing basic university-level education in science and mathematics, in the Social Sciences, in the arts and humanities, and in human communication.
• Electives chosen to fit the student's preferences or needs. (It is recognized that the number of these electives may be fewer in some degrees because of accreditation requirements, but the inclusion of some electives is important.)

2. Bachelor of Arts Degree:

• is usually less specialized than a Bachelor of Science degree.
• requires a minimum of 180 quarter units for the degree; 36 units are required in the major, of which at least 18 units are at the 300-400 level.
• is normally awarded in such majors as the languages, literature, other humanities, and history.

3. Bachelor of Science Degree:

• typically involves technical fields.
• requires a minimum of 180 quarter units for the degree; 54 units are required in the major, of which at least 27 quarter units are at the of 300-400 level.
• is normally awarded in such majors as the physical and biological sciences, engineering, and agriculture.

Answer 3

The exact classes you will be required to take will depend on your college or university's curriculum. Generally speaking, you will be required to take a sampling of courses from the following disciplines:

- economics

- accounting

- management theory

- organizational psychology

- supervision

- human resources

- business law

Most Bachelor's degrees also require some form of general education credits, which will include English, mathematics, and perhaps humanities, sciences, and other arts.

Answer 4

You are wide open. Many individuals pursue a masters degree in an unrelated program particular to their bachelor's degree. My bachelor's is in psychology with a collateral program in gerontology. However, my master's is in organizational management. Once you decide on the specific master's program, you can inquire about any prerequisite coursework required to be admitted into that program (if any). If you do not have the required prerequisite coursework, you may have to complete it at the undergraduate level first.

Answer 5

There are many courses that are needed to get a management degree and they do vary depending on what college or university you will be attending. Usually business classes are taken as well as finance classes.

Answer 6

An individual pursuing a career in business management should have no less than a bachelors degree (four year program of study). There are some community colleges that offer an associates, however the competition is just too great today. Think bachelors degree, and then masters. The higher the degree, the more marketable you will be.

Answer 7

If you're going for a Bachelors Degree, you need a high school diploma or a GED credential. For a Masters you usually need to have a Bachelors' Degree.

Answer 8

A business degree would be a good option.
