"Bachelor of Science in Information Systems" vs. "Bachelor of Science in General Studies with a Concentration in Information Systems". if they are the same, why the difference in naming?
Why have mostly concentrations and a few majors? Why not all concentrations?
And according to Charter Oaks website they are similar which implies that they are not the same: "A concentration is similar to a major, but it offers far more flexibility by allowing you to work with the credits you have already earned to map-out a degree program that meets your career and personal goals." Which brings up another question, what flexibility?
Charter Oak has a degree naming convention that raises questions because it is different then what most schools do. It is reassuring to hear that people who have the General Studies with a concentration have not had any problems because of it.
