That should be required for all people majoring in a STEM field. I'll start with 3:
1) Classical philosophy (Socrates invented the scientific method)
2) Debate (particularly involving logical fallacies)
3) Ethics (should be fairly obvious why this should be included)
Some good links to check out:

Writting and reading comprehension.
Personal Hygiene should be required for all CS majors
This !
Include a minimum exercise program
Or
How not to be lard whale.
Heh
>philosophy
Literally a waste of time. No scientist or engineer will become a better scientist or engineer by reading philosophy.
>Debate
Mathematicians in training are constantly writing arguments down so this is useless. Most scientists and engineers in university have to do the same but on a smaller scale, which is enough.
"General debate" is useless and we are all good because debate forms a part of every STEM course at some level. You always have to argue for something.
>Ethics
Ooh the spicy memes. Haha! Dank! Retweet, share and +1 my friend! Oh these dank memes! Born too early to suck dick, born too late to take dick, born just in time to browse dank memes amirite boiiiissssssssssssss.

Non stem courses that should be required in stem:
Technical writing in two languages.
That's it.
Then you will become a a.n.t
Autonomous non tinking
Humans are supposed to be able to work in many levels ,both social and technical
Expeciallization is for insects.
You learn socializing by socializing. People have friends, partners and family. You learn socialization by interacting with them.
We don't need autist-accomodating courses that teach socialization. Just go read a book on how to lose your virginity.
>autism
This is the key word
Autistic people need detailed instructions,
Theach them the basics and they will do just ok.
So because some people are autistic we should have mandatory classes on how to cure autism?
It is not even like if autists were a majority. They are like the 1%.
Why don't we also have classes on how to do math with only one hand with 2 fingers? There are some people out there who've lost their arm and most of the fingers in their remaining hand so we better accomodat ethem!
You know, teach them the basics and they will do jus tok.
The point is: This is a course needed only by a niche population so leave it as an optional course. Maybe if you want the SAT should have an autism part and if you test positive for autism then it is mandatory for you.
