Question

what is the difference between "major "and "specialization "in the sentence?Thx.
I graduated with honors from  University with a major in Business Administration, with a specialization in Information Management.
what is the difference between "major "and "specialization "in the sentence?Thx.or should I ask what is the difference between "major "and "specialization "in college?

Answer

It would depend on the specific university or college. They can mean the same thing or something different.

Usually "major" refers to your primary course of study, which has a minimum number of courses required to get a degree. "Specialization" generally is a focus within the major, maybe requiring a specific number of courses or maybe not.

So I'd say I have a major in business with a specialization in marketing. So your sentence is correct.
