Are these expressions correct?

Hi!

Are the expressions in bold (excerpt from CV) correct?

I graduated from University of Alabama in 2003 with a master of science degree in Mathematics and I began my professional career in IT technology. Simultaneously I continued to study second faculty – Computer Science – which ended in 2005 with a bachelor of science degree.

The meaning of these expression should be that after graduating I started working and at the same time I have been studying second faculty and I finished studying second faculty in 2005.

Regards,

Tomasz

Thank you for response.

Sorry for the "Alabama example" - it was the first name that came to my mind. I didn't think it would matter.
Actually it should be somewhere in Poland (Warsaw, Poznan), so "master of science" degree is correct.

As far as I know, you can be either a Master of Science or a Master of Arts in the US. Your specialty falls under one or the other. Historians are MAs, and engineers are MSs, for instance.
