A Bachelor of Arts (B.A., BA, A.B., or AB),
from the Latin
artium baccalaureus or baccalarium
artium,
is a bachelor's
degree awarded
for an undergraduate course
or program in either the liberal
arts,
the sciences, or both. Bachelor of Arts degree programs
generally take three to four years depending on the country, academic
institution, and specific specializations, majors or minors. The word baccalaureus
or baccalarium (from the Latin bacca, a berry, and laureus,
"of the bay
laurel")
should not be confused with baccalaureatus
(translatable as "gold-plated scepter" by using the Latin baculum
and aureatus), which refers to the one- to two-year postgraduate
Bachelor
of Arts with
Honours
degree (Baccalaureatus in
Artibus Cum Honore) in some countries. (Information
taken from Wikipedia.)
