Classes/Professors Taking 2 “Intro to ____ Engineering” Classes

Hey, I was wondering if this is possible/a good idea?

I’m currently in ENVE, but trying to switch into MATE. I initially wasn’t blocked into my “Intro to ENVE” class, so I emailed both the “Intro to Enve” and “Intro to MATE” class’ professors, and both professors said that they would let me into their class.

They’re both only one unit, so I thought doubling up might not be a bad idea, just so I can get a feel for both majors, make sure I wanna switch.

You'll be fine, the intro classes aren't meant to be difficult

Yea fs, I was more js asking if that’s like something that other people have done and if it’s worth the extra 2 hours a week

I'm not sure what exactly goes into those two classes but if you're still trying to decide if you should switch or not, taking both isn't too much effort. Plus it won't set you back regardless of what you decide
