BAAS vs BA, how are they seen?

[GameSlinger]

I currently have to A.A.S. degrees and I am currently working on a B.P.S. Most applications systems do not differentiate between the different types of degrees within each level. They will just simple have a check box for associates, bachelors, masters, and other. Even at my current company, when I applied, they had a breakdown list of about 50 different options (they area worldwide company) and they had the BA, BS, BAS, but did not have the BPS. There was the option of just selecting bachelors and not specifying what type.

With that in mind, you just need to know how to sell that degree during interviews. What I mean by that is that each type of degree has its own strengths and weaknesses. BA for example focuses primarily on your non core courses, and has fewer courses directly relevant to the focus. BAS places most of its focus on core relevant courses, at the expense of electives/humanities. BS would be in between those as it focuses on the technical side of the degree, but not at the level of the BAS which places its primary focus there. The BPS is on the same lines as a BAS from what I can see online.

This article sums it up pretty well.
