A Bachelor of Arts (BA) is a university degree that focuses on subjects within the liberal arts, humanities, social sciences, languages and culture, and fine arts.
Many BA programs are very flexible, allowing you to study a range of subjects (such as psychology, English, or economics) or to really focus on one or two subjects.
You’ll normally have a “major” or main subject of interest. A large portion of your courses will be in that subject, but you’ll have the freedom to take courses in other subjects that help you build important skills like thinking critically and conducting research.
