BACS or BSCS

<p>Are you kidding? HR reps look for absolutes. If you put “B.S. Mathematics/Computer Science” on your resume and they see “B.S. Mathematics” on your transcript, you’re toast. It’s like putting a GPA of 3.0 when you have a GPA on your transcript of 2.97. </p>

<p>I get that you can take the same courses in Major A to satisfy Major B. But there are ways to put that on a resume to make it clear:</p>

<p>B.S. Mathematics (Computer Science Option)

  • Completed all major coursework for Mathematics and Computer Science</p>

<p>That’s very clear without any appearance of deception. For a dual degree, you shouldn’t put a slash: “B.S. Mathematics and B.S. Computer Science”. They’re distinct bachelor’s degrees so they should be acknowledged separately.</p>
