Bachelor of Art

A Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree is an undergraduate degree program that is typically awarded in the arts, humanities, social sciences, or other liberal arts fields. The program is designed to provide students with a broad-based education that includes a range of courses in different disciplines, as well as opportunities for specialization in a particular area of interest.

The curriculum for a BA degree typically includes courses in areas such as literature, history, philosophy, languages, social sciences, and the arts. Students may also be required to take courses in mathematics, science, and other core subjects. In addition to coursework, BA degree programs often require students to complete a capstone project or thesis, which allows them to demonstrate their mastery of the subject matter and their ability to conduct independent research. Some programs may also offer opportunities for internships, study abroad, or other experiential learning opportunities. Graduates of a BA degree program may pursue careers in a wide range of fields, including education, journalism, social work, public policy, government, law, and the arts. They may also choose to pursue advanced degrees in their field of study or in a related field.
