Question: how many credits for a bachelor's degree in science

title: Bachelor's degree
text: The Bachelor of Journalism ( B.A.J. or B. Sc. J . ) degree is a professional degree awarded to students who have studied journalism at a four - year accredited university . Not all universities , however , grant this degree . In the United States , schools tend to offer the B.A. or B.S. with a major in journalism instead . The world 's oldest school of journalism at the University of Missouri offers a B.J. degree , not to be confused with the bachelor 's degree in jurisprudence at Oxford University . In South Africa , Rhodes University has the oldest school of journalism in Africa and allows students to take a fourth - year specialisation to raise their B.A. to B.A.J. status , equivalent to a B.A. ( Hons ). x
