Bachelor's degree
The Bachelor of Arts degrees (B.A., A.B.; also known as "Artium Baccalaureus") along with the Bachelor of Science degrees are the most common undergraduate degrees given. Originally, in the universities of Oxford, Cambridge and Dublin, all undergraduate degrees were in the faculty of arts, hence the name of the degree. The Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences (B.A.A.Sc.) is an undergraduate degree that bridges academic and work-life experiences.There are various undergraduate degrees in information technology incorporating programming, database design, software engineering, networks and information systems. These programs prepare graduates for further postgraduate research degrees or for employment in a variety of roles in the information technology industry. The program focus may be on the technical or theoretical aspects of the subject matter, depending on which course is taken.
Undergraduate Colleges of Stony Brook University
Although the undergraduate colleges are targeted to first year students, it is possible to stay involved beyond the first year if students so choose. As upperclassmen, students may become "Fellows" for their undergraduate college where they are expected to help out at new student orientation, TA a UGC 101 class, and put on programs for the freshmen students in the college. Students may also become Interns for the college or Resident Assistants in the UGCs quad, so they may put on events around the college, among other activities.
