Is it true that a Bachelor of Arts in science is useless?

<p>While the majority of ABET accredited engineering degree programs lead to a BS degree, not all do. Some lead to a BE degree. (And there is a small number of master’s degree engineering programs that are ABET accredited.) I have not exhaustively looked through the list to see if there are any where the degree title is BA. Unless ABET requires that the title not be BA, then there is no theoretical reason why a school cannot get ABET accreditation for a degree program leading to a BA degree.</p>

<p>But it is the ABET accreditation that matters, not the BA/BE/BS distinction (i.e. make sure that your specific degree program is ABET accredited).</p>
