Be careful on that site. Every thread I've seen there is a massive troll-fest. I don't think it's moderated very well, if at all.

Looks pretty typical to me. Almost exactly what I'm in now, except I don't have dedicated lab classes, almost all of my classes have a lab component.

There should be a microcontroller/microprocessor course for the purpose of designing embedded systems. I don't see it on the compulsory courses list. However, it's offered as an elective course in the program. Good one.
