Degree Programs...

[indie]

If you have a choice to make between pursuing a Bachelor of Arts Degree and a Bachelor of Science Degree which will you choose and why?

science is useful

[kemist]

I'll probably do the BA to experience something 'different'.

But to the younger folks i could say that it depends on what sort of career you want. If you want a science-related career, do a BSc. Some science programs also offer management courses in their BSc program. I also know some folks with BSc's who did an MBA afterward, because their science base alone did not help them advance in their chosen careers.

To me, that sort of choice should be based on what the person thinks will make him/her happy, because a degree is a 3-4 year commitment and is most likely to determine your career path. A lot of people make their decision on the latter, particularly on the availability of jobs and earning potential.

I'd always advise Science. U can usually pursue either Masters with Science degree. But once u start off with Arts, u're pretty much stuck with it unless u start afresh with Science. That is of course, that u're adept at both.

Science is the best way to go...at least for me!!!

Education is what survives when what has been
learned has been forgotten.

I think Arts is more on passion.. maybe its worth giving a good thinking on business first then enjoy your passion on the later age.

[mammadon]

strange question, the labelling depends on the discipline, ent? Can a performing arts degree be a BSc?

[Solachica]

In foreign I see they have a Bachelor of Arts and Sciences,BASc

Don't think we have such a mix in Trini. Tht wud mean an arts student have to be doing science courses too.
