You can go get an associates degree or go to a technical college and take just the courses you want for your chosen field.
But a Bachelor of Science in Engineering means something. Holding that degree means you meet the basic requirements of a Bachelor's degree and have taken the accredited courses for your major. When an employer looks at a resume and looks at two candidates, one that went to ITT Tech and one that got a BS from an accredited University, s/he is assured that you at least passed English and Maths and took the no-fun classes that are required in the field. Nobody likes assembly. I contend that only a psychopath would voluntarily write assembly language. But in today's world, everything electrical is in some way tied to computers. You need to know how computers work at a low level, and assembly is a good way to do that.
If I can get an A in assembly while working overnight 65+ hours/week, anybody can get an A. You may not ever write another line of assembly code, but the architecture shit you learn in that class is valuable knowledge.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
