<p>I wondered if you are an ENG student at UIUC, how much time is there to check out / explore other non engineering (“soft”) classes?</p>
<p>One the reasons that my son was applying to UIUC vs just going to a math/science/engineering intensive school such as RPI, RH, and the like, was for the breadth of offerings at UIUC.</p>
<p>Beyond comp 101, would he be able --have time - to take an anthro course or english course, for example? </p>
<p>How often do ENG students at UIUC minor in something else? </p>
<p>Is it possible to major in ENG major in something else?</p>
<p>When I asked my son why does he want to go to college, he said, To get a well rounded education and be prepared for a job. </p>
<p>Getting an engineering degree at UIUC would certainly satisfy the latter part of his ‘mission stmt’, but to what extent can UIUC satisfy the 1st half of that statement?</p>
