I can understand that. In my country, you choose what you want to study and that's the only thing you study. There are no minors or options or electives. Also, the courses are quite narrow. For instance you could solely study Corrosion Control Engineering, Forensic Egyptology, or Intellectual Property Law, and that is all you would ever study.
It produces specialists (who then can't find jobs in their specialisms). Your system seems to promote a more holistic approach. While you may not like it, it is a better way of doing things and gives you a grounding in things you may later need to fall back on.
