difference of subjects in ba psychology and bsc psychology?

Hello aspirant,

The difference in both the programmes is about the stream, BA psychology is pursued by arts students and bsc Psychology is pursued by science students. The duration of both programmes is three years.

The basic difference between the two courses lies in the coursework and syllabus; BA Psychology as a discipline is oriented towards liberal arts while BSc psychology is more technical and scientific with a focus on maths and statistics.

BA Psychology is ideal for students who have a liberal arts background and wish to pursue a career in fields like counselling, education, social work, journalism, law while BSc in Psychology is for students with a science background who wish to enter the medical profession or study neurosciences.

I hope this information helps you.

Hey Ayush,

See academically, both degrees are respected. Each degree has its own set of benefits, so students considering which to pursue should think about their post-graduation goals. Students who intend to enter the professional industry right after graduation, for example, should pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree. The Bachelor of Science is definitely the preferable option for those who appreciate math and science, desire to move on to graduate school, and are more technical and analytical.

Hope it helps....!!!

Regards.
