Curious - TESU BA/BS Psych

(05-01-2019, 05:01 PM)sanantone Wrote: The statement about no one looking for a BA in psych is false. I have many years of experience of looking for jobs that want a psych degree because I have a related degree. I've, literally, applied to hundreds of jobs that specifically mentioned wanting a bachelor's in psychology. 

Now, can you get those same jobs with a BS in liberal studies? Yes, but you'll need to demonstrate that you've taken a significant amount of coursework in human services-related subjects. So, I don't think you need a BA in psych, but if you didn't already have a degree, I would have recommended psych over liberal studies. Liberal studies, general studies, interdisciplinary studies, and general studies programs should ALWAYS be absolute last resorts.

I was generally talking about getting a BA in Psych on top of a BS in Liberal Arts with a depth in Psych (so like 12+ credits).  It makes no sense to do that, you're not going to get a big boost.

You need 24 NEW credits in the major.  Including or excluding the Psych courses you've already taken doesn't matter.  7 courses that you've taken SINCE the previous degree was conferred.  Plus the capstone gives you 24cr.
