What is a 'Bachelor's Degree'?
A bachelor's degree, also known as a BA or a BS, is a four year degree offered by a college or university that is considered a comprehensive course of study including electives, general or core education requirements, as well as a focus, known as a major. A bachelor's degree is a degree that teaches us how to think critically. It doesn't matter as much what the topic really is, as much as that we learn how to think critically and learn how to find information that will help us to solve problems in the future, after we've graduated from college.
