<p>Engineering majors usually require more than 120 hours… more like 130-140. Most of the classes that fulfill the 130-140 hours are engineering classes. However, you still have to take some electives and fulfill distribution requirements. I recommend that all of you check the Rice General Announcements out. You will find answers to all your academic questions there: [General</a> Announcements](<a href=“http://www.rice.edu/catalog/2009_2010/]General”>http://www.rice.edu/catalog/2009_2010/). You will also get plenty of advising during O-Week as well.</p>
