Ohh, this is just like an additional course, an elective. I will be majoring in ME. This is an additional thing to set me apart from other Tech students when looking for internships and of course jobs later on.

One bit of advice: Ma Tech isn't a University and students/alumni will give you a bit of grief if they hear you call it one.
Well I thought if an institution offered various degrees in different fields in both grad and undergrad programs they were an university. Guess I'll have to get used to the unique ways of thinking here.
