A Bachelor of Science (B.S., B.Sc. or less commonly, S.B. or Sc.B. from the Latin Scientiae Baccalaureus) is an undergraduate academic degree awarded for courses taken that generally last three years in England, Wales, Northern Ireland, Germany, India, Quebec, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and South Africa or four years in the rest of North America and Scotland.

In North America, a Bachelor of Science degree usually requires students to take a majority of their courses (usually one half or three quarters) in the sciences, namely life sciences, physical sciences, or the mathematical sciences. Most universities plan the Science Bachelor degree as a liberal arts course schedule.

In the UK, which subjects are considered science subjects varies, e.g. economics degrees may be B.A. in one university but B.Sc. in another.

A Bachelor of Science receives the designation B.Sc. or B.S. for a major/pass degree and B.Sc. (Hons) or B.S. (Hon) for an honours degree.

Formerly, in the University of Oxford the degree of B.Sc. was a postgraduate degree. This former degree, still actively granted, has since been renamed M.Sc.

"Tagged" or specified degrees

Many colleges of engineering, business, education, etc. also offer the Bachelor of Science as a tagged degree. A tagged degree incorporates the name of the major into the degree title, and generally requires more specialized course work than a degree with an untagged major. Some examples of tagged degrees include, but are not limited to:

  • Bachelor of Science in Agriculture
  • Bachelor of Science in Architecture
  • Bachelor of Science in Business
  • Bachelor of Science in Chemistry
  • Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering
  • Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering
  • Bachelor of Science in Computer Science
  • Bachelor of Science in Education
  • Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering
  • Bachelor of Science in Foreign Service (BSFS)
  • Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering
  • Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN)
  • Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy

The Bachelor of Science in Foreign service, a degree granted by only a small number of institutions, can be found at schools (colleges) of foreign service or foreign affairs, including the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, Washington, DC.
