<p>My son is an engineering major in a not particularly highly ranked program and his schedule which is clearly set out for him for four years leaves little room for anything but engineering/science/math classes as well as a minimal number of liberal arts requirements (like freshman english and maybe 3 other humanities courses). I would say if your goal is to graduate in four years with an engineering degree, you had better go to a school with a full-fledged engineering program.</p>
