So I have decided instead of just BSBA CIS at TESU, I'd also like to complete the Accounting AOS. On a resume for future employees how would I refer to this degree? I don't think Dual Major is right.. Maybe Dual Focus?
Thank you in advance.
TESU March 2020 Graduation
--ASNSM Mathematics
--BSBA Accounting
--BA Computer Science
University of Alaska Fairbanks (December 2021 Graduation Goal)
--MBA (2/10 : 4.0)
I started this journey in the summer of 2016. I hoped to be done sooner, but I am still proud of the rate at which I have gotten my schooling done with respect to the many months of military training and deployments I have undergone.

BSBA Account & CIS Concentration, for some reason that sounds better than a dual focus or minor.
As most major's are 30 credits and higher, it won't be considered as a dual or double major.
Furthermore, the BSBA already indicates it's a Business Administration degree.

You're getting a BSBA in Accounting and CIS. You can become an IT guy who's strong on Accounting, or be an accountant who's got computing chops. Most schools allow double majors. My son got his BSBA in Accounting and Marketing. He chose to pursue Marketing as his career, but based on his degree he could have entered Accounting just as easily. HR departments are very used to seeing degrees like those.
