Iranian degree titles
Southern California has the largest Iranian community outside Iran, and Iranian degree titles are a classic translation trap. A bachelor's degree is a kārshenāsi - literally "expertise" - and a master's is a kārshenāsi-ye arshad, "senior expertise". Rendering those literally makes a bachelor's look like a professional certification.
The translation gives the accepted English degree level with the Persian title beside it, and dates in both the Iranian solar calendar and the Gregorian. Whether the degree matches a US bachelor's or master's is then for the evaluator.
