How can you cover a BS in 3 years? Most engineering graduates take 5 years for a BS. I only did it in 4 by 18-21 credits/semester and 1 summer.

- barry-cotter 9y agoOutside the US and countries that ape its university system there are no general education requirements. You study your degree subject and nothing else. The well rounded citizen stuff is presumed covered in secondary school.
- kilburn 9y agoThe 5-year degrees that existed in most of Europe before bologna were not centered around being a "well-rounded citizen". They were centered around being a "well-rounded" major. In CS, this means that you were taught courses ranging from basic Electrical Engineering all the way to Artificial Intelligence, including physics, algebra, calculus, signal processing, theory of computation, algorithms, databases, computer architecture, compilers, computer networks, robotics, etc.. That is, you got introductory-level courses on everything that makes "computer-stuff", and then there were a number of optional courses where you specialized. I really don't think you can cover all that material in 3 years...
