<p>Wondering if anyone could help me decide which program to go for.</p>

<p>I am planning on studying Computer Science, but am not sure whether to choose the BS or the BA. The BS has some requirements of Physics and Math, but I've already finished those. My main concern is that the BS requires more overall CS coursework, and I want to ensure that I look good to an employer. On the flipside, I sort of want to choose the BA and use my additional time to get a Management minor. If anyone can give some advice, I'd appreciate it!</p>

<p>If your overall goal is to go into graduate school (computer science) then you definitely should get a BS. However, if you want to do more of the manageral/business field of computer science, then you can get a BA. The management minor would look really good with computer science, but if you can pull it off, a dual major would look even better! Good luck.</p>
