A business degree can be either a Bachelor of Arts (BA), or a Bachelors in Science (BS) degree. Thus, the BA would indicate it is an arts degree, while the BS would indicate it is a science degree. It is up to the specific college or university as to which approach they prefer. For a brief explanation of the difference between an arts and science degree, read the below.
The Bachelor of Arts degree (BA) has a broader scope, with a strong emphasis on the humanities, theoretical and general knowledge in a recognized discipline, interdisciplinary field, or of a professional study.
The Bachelor of Science degree (BS) is more of a focused approach with a science base to include a balance of liberal arts, technological knowledge, math and computer oriented skills, and practical skills needed for a particular discipline within the field.
