My son said the same thing about ENGR 111 & 112. Busy work and really didn’t get much from it. Although it is group based and the projects are to work with groups several of his group dropped engineering and he was left doing much on his own. He said he spent more hours on the ENGR classes than he did on physics and calculus.
@Mathman97 it is a little more than playing with robots. The students build and program them to do functions.
