Your BALS degree is a Bachelor of Arts. Your Major is in Liberal Studies. Your Concentration is in Psychology. I could see someone referring to their concentration as a Minor.

For the ASNSM, the degree is Associate of Science. The major is in Natural Science and Mathematics. Mathematics is considered an emphasis or option area for the AS degree.

In the case of the ASNSM, I do not think it is correct to say, Natural Science and Mathematics is the major. ASNSM is an abbreviation for the actual name of the degree conferred. The full unabbreviated name appears on the diploma. TESU does not list the AOS/major on their diplomas.

This is exactly the same as a BSBA again an abbreviation of the actual name of the degree conferred, Business Administration would likewise not be considered the AOS/major.
