University of Illinois engineering honors programs

Hi, I am a highschool junior looking to get a science/engineering education grounded in the liberal arts so that I can have some flexibility and general skills for the future job market. How are the James Scholar and CHP honors programs at urbana champaign in this regard? Are the programs too difficult to be realistically possible? I was also planning on doing an art minor along with this if I get in. Would that be impossible? This minor is not the most necessary thing though. I know that with taking co-ops and stuff, I will probably be spending 5 years there instead of 4. I will be major in specifically bioengineering. Thank you for your responses.
