BA, that's a degree in Business Administration, I'm thinking...??
Actually, no, although that is very logical thinking.
Degrees can have various prefixes, such as Bsc, BS, BBA etc, depending on the subject matter and type of course.
A BA is the most common form of degree and stands for a Batchelor of Arts, it encompasses a good deal of subjects in the Liberal Arts or Science areas of study.
I think
Wikipedia may give a more coherant definition than I, however.
