BBA vs. BS

BA in Business would be the more flexible of the two. The BS in CIS would be the more rigid.

Bachelor of Arts in Business allows you to learn a little bit of everything. The Bachelor of Science in CIS allows you to learn more of the technicalend (programming, circuits, engineering etc.).

You need to determine what you want to do for 10 years or more and that would determine the route for you to take. For instance, if you are more of a people person, then I'd say go with Business. If you are more of a hands-on technical kind of a person, who does not have a problem with trying to make stuff work day-in-and-day-out, then go with the CIS.

I don't think I can answer the most "profitable" of the two -- it's not your degree that will matter in the long run. It's what you choose to do with that degree, knowledge, etc. and whether your leading or not. Profit depends on motivation and hard work.

It really depends on what you want to do after college. I would have to disagree with the 1st reply. A BBA will garner less respect in a high tech world, but will be more well recieved by sales, marketing, etc. A BS is a little more flexible since it is seen as more "worker" oriented. To get into tech management, the BS with an MBA works very well -- but you need experience to go with the BS.

Also, to get into the computer industry does not require a degree even remotely related to CIS.Mine's in Chemistry with a MS in Operations Research.

Again this all depends on the route you want to take later.. It's like should I take programming classes, when I don't want to be a programmer, I'd rather be a network administrator. The path you choose should match your goal.
