CONCEPT Continuing and Professional Studies
What is the difference between a BS (Bachelor of Science) and a BA (Bachelor of Arts) degree?
Palo Alto University (PAU) only offers Bachelor of Science degrees. A Bachelor of Science degree focuses more on science and mathematics courses and is focused on achieving a psychology degree.
On the other hand, a Bachelor of Arts degree generally requires more liberal arts courses, such as foreign language and humanities.
