A Bachelor's degree usually requires four academic years of study and a minimum of 128 credit hours, which are accumulated by taking a series of courses. Each completed course counts as one to four credits toward a degree.
Students graduate with one of two degrees depending on the academic discipline studied: the Bachelor of Arts (BA) for a major in the humanities, social sciences, communications, and business, or the Bachelor of Science (BSc) for a major in Computer Science, International Finance, Mathematics and Computer Science, or Quantitative Environmental Science. BA and BSc Degrees are awarded to candidates who meet the following criteria:
Students are awarded the BA or BSc degree based on requirements in effect at the time of matriculation. However, the student may choose to follow any new requirements implemented during his/her time at AUP.
The University confers BA, BSc and MA Degrees in January, May, and July. A graduation ceremony is held in May for students (both graduate and undergraduate) who have completed all the necessary graduation requirements.
