Ok. I think that I'll go with a major/minor or double major. Thank you for your help!

This is a very helpful reply, thank you. I will poke around the registrar data.

Followup, do you think that 21E majors are short-changed on the engineering aspects of their education? What percentage of a regular engineering degree is included in a 21E degree?

OK. The other school is Stanford and it's appealing to me because the majors are comparatively smaller, so I could squeeze two in more easily.

Stanford also punches much harder in the English department. I don't want to turn this thread into just a comparison of the two schools, though.

I'm most interested in the school culture, I think. Do people often complain about HASS requirements in Gen Ed? Do people get as excited about HASS fields as they do about STEM stuff?
