- At U Mass Boston, undergraduates who are Psychology majors can earn either a Bachelor of Arts (BA) or a Bachelor of Science (BS). The answer to the question of which degree a particular student should pursue depends on several things.
- This is especially true for students with interests in areas of Psychology that are more biologically oriented or who have future career plans that include science or health care.
- However, there are also students who enter those areas who dont want all of the course work that is required by the BS degree but who take some of the math or science courses and earn a BA degree.
