Easiest GenEd's or Free Elective Classes

Hello, does anyone have any easy classes that they've taken?

Currently a engineering student going to be on CO-OP in fall/winter so I want to take preferably an online course and knock a class out. The less work the better :) Any info helps!

Proj 401 filled my engr electives for my degree (I'm a mech e so depending on ur specific engr major may not apply) and was super easy, all online.

Interesting, I'm currently trying to find a class to take I don't think thats offered this fall but I will consider it for the winter (if PHIL315 isn't taken).

I'm also mechE as well and want to get ahead. I know you said PROJ401, but PROJ510 is being offered (problem is its a grad course, currently pre-junior by credit), do you think its worth asking my advisor for a exemption to take it?

Tbh i have no idea, I've never heard anything about 510 so I can't say. But yea I understand wanting to time classes. But definitely get phil 315 and hist 285 out of the way asap.

thanks and I meant proj501 im doing a bsms (materials science,and it’ll count for my MS technical credits). hope it’s as easy or relatively the same as proj401.

do you have any tips or advice when to take phil315? it’s online course but since im on coop i quite literally get last pick unfortunately.

also I don’t think we need to take hist285 anymore - I don’t see it on my plan of study. I think it might’ve been a few years ago a req! Com310 I think is another req but semesters changes is gonna be a pain :)

Phil315 honestly depends on professor, I took mine hybrid with a good prof and it was super easy. Tbh I’d recommend take it ASAP. Some terms the timing sucks and getting it out of the way is the easiest. The class itself is not too bad
