Bachelor of Arts and Science
A Bachelor of Arts and Science(s) (BASc), sometimes as Bachelor of Science and Arts (BScA),[1] is an undergraduate bachelor's degree conferred by a small number of universities from countries including the United States, Canada,[2] the United Kingdom,[3] New Zealand,[4] Australia, and France.[5] There is no one set way in which a Bachelor of Arts and Science programme is generally structured but they generally involve students taking interdisciplinary courses from both the liberal arts and the sciences,[2] and/or require a student to complete the general requirements for a bachelor's degree for two different academic majors (or academic minors) — one that usually leads to a BA degree and one that usually leads to a BSc degree.[3] The degrees are generally designed to be completed in three to four years, depending on the institution.
In English-speaking universities, the BASc is not an example of a double degree, as universities only confer a single degree.[6][7] However, Sciences Po, the only French-speaking university to offer the programme, grants a dual Bachelor's degree upon completion.[5]
