eli5 American college subjects

1.99K views

I live in Australia where if you study a particular degree, all (or the vast majority) of your subjects are directly related to that field.
I may be wrong but movies tend to give me the impression that at American universities/colleges, all students study a wide array of subjects, attend random lectures, and students room with people studying different things.
It also appears to be a lot about the lifestyle and not just get in, do your study, get your degree.

Are American studies specialised or more general?
Thank you! 🫶

I’m in Australia, when I got my degree (last year) about 1/3 of the units were not directly related to my major. I think most universities are like that.
