A liberal arts school with a good engineering program?

<p>

</p>

<p>You have to look at each individual school’s curriculum requirements and offerings to see if it meets your needs and wants.</p>

<p>For example, you might be avoiding MIT for the reasons you state. However, it actually requires all students to complete a large number of liberal arts courses, including:</p>

<ul>
<li>Eight humanities, arts, and social studies courses, including one from each category, and three or four in a concentration.</li>
<li>Math (calculus through multivariable calculus), physics (mechanics and electricity/magnetism), chemistry, and biology courses.</li>
</ul>

<p>Note that MIT also has sufficient offerings in several humanities and social studies subjects that you can major in them:</p>
