<p>While I can’t speak for what is possible at Cornell pe se…It seems to me that a BArch (which is what Cornell offers) is not like a BA and would entail more courses in the major than a BA…perhaps 2/3’s of one’s coursework. Likewise, an engineering degree is not like a BA in that it requires more courses in the major than a BA major does, perhaps something like 2/3’s of one’s coursework. Doing the math…2/3 + 2/3 seems impossible to fit into a college schedule. On top of that, most BArch or Engineering majors have a little bit of liberal arts requirements to fulfill which would be impossible if 2/3’s of one’s classes are satifsying the BArch major and 2/3’s of one’s classes is satisfying the Engineering major…and well, it seems impossible to create such a class schedule and graduate with this double major (forget how much work it would be but I am just talking logistically). Both degrees are specialized degrees, not BA degrees. Perhaps an engineering major OR an BArch major could handle a minor or another major if the other one was a BA (still difficult but possible at some schools) but I can’t see a double major between two specialized professional degree programs that have requirements that go beyond what a BA major entails in the amount of courses to fulfill each major.</p>
