BA versus BS
#13
Actually, mathematics is a so-called "liberal art" not a science as many people mistakenly believe, so a BA in math is completely appropriate. Also, for what its worth TESC's BA comp sci degree requires two levels of calculus and either discrete math or linear algebra. Compare that to Troy State's BS comp sci ("applied cs") that only requires "business calculus" yet is rather highly regarded in the military as a CS degree. TESC has a more rigorous degree (mathematically, at least) but almost nobody in the military has heard of it.

BTW TESC will put 3 credits of math in the natural science block, go figure.
