What is the Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) Degree?
The Bachelor of Applied Science degree is an engineering degree designed for students with strong interests and capabilities in science and mathematics but who do not plan to pursue engineering careers. This program stresses the importance of technical concepts and skills, but does not require the in-depth specialization in an engineering discipline of the BSE degree. However, each B.A.S. student selects a concentration of study in Biomedical Science, Cognitive Science, Computer Science, Computational Biology, or Electrical and Systems Engineering.
