<p>I want to major in biomedical engineering and minor in musical studies. However, I think it's actually pretty hard to do both since the classes just don't fit in my schedule. (The minor has 26 units....though there is quite a lot of 2 or 3 unit classes, it still doesn't fit in the schedule for BME) </p>
<p>Thus, I want to know if anyone here has been successfully doing these two major/minor at the same time?</p>
<p>i’m personally not doing it, but a girl in my hall just entered the music minor and she’s also an engineering major. however, she might be electrical engineering instead of biomedical, and i know that biomed is one of the hardest engineering majors. so maybe she can fit it in because she has slightly fewer units for her major. are you a student here already? if so, you should just ask your advisor! :]</p>
<p>My son is considering doing this (electrical engineering major + music minor). It is very difficult to fit everything in; he will probably need to take some summer classes to do it. But if it’s something you really want to do, there’s a way to make it happen.</p>
<p>FYI electrical is probably the hardest engineering major.</p>
<p>How does Biomedical rate among the engineering majors?</p>
<p>Well, lots of people drop out of it, but it starts with a ton of people as well so who knows? What I’ve heard is that it’s hard for people who have the normal engineering problem solving mindset of “apply equation x to data y to get solution z, then interpret it” because a lot of the biology is just straight memorization.</p>
