Undergraduate Programs (Bachelor's degree)

An undergraduate program is a course of study offered by colleges and universities that leads to an undergraduate degree, typically a bachelor's degree. It serves as the first level of higher education after completing secondary school (high school or equivalent). Undergraduate programs provide students with foundational knowledge and skills in a specific field or discipline, along with general education courses to broaden their understanding across various subjects.

Key characteristics of an undergraduate program include:

• Duration: Typically lasts three to four years, depending on the country and specific program.
• Types of Degrees: Common undergraduate degrees include Bachelor of Arts (BA), Bachelor of Science (BS), Bachelor of Engineering (BEng), and others.
• Curriculum: Combines general education courses (e.g., humanities, sciences, social sciences) with courses specific to the major or field of study.
• Major or Specialization: Students choose a major, which is their primary area of study, such as biology, business, computer science, or psychology. Some programs may also allow for a minor, which is a secondary area of focus.

The goal is to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and qualifications necessary for entry-level careers or further studies, such as graduate programs.
