> easy introductions to various things. right on! imho, one of the main points of a diverse undergraduate education is to give you exposure to introductory-level courses in lots of different fields. it's unreasonable to imagine that you can master a field just by taking a few undergrad courses in it, but that's not the point of those courses. that's why i think that general-education and non-technical elective courses are such important parts of the curriculum, even though they don't directly teach you anything applicable in your future job
