It's okay to take an extra year, a lot of people do, and I'd recommend sticking to a low amount of credit hours to keep from burning out or overloading. If you can fit in more, do a side project with one of the engineering societies on campus and get some hands-on experience. Not taking all of your easy classes at once is really important for an engineering major. General education requirements should be rationed out, as stated in the original post, or engineers especially will suffer.
