is engineering the right choice?

i'm not too sure what i want to do, so i think i want to choose a major (or majors) that will give me enough flexibility. i hear that engineering is the most versatile degree out there, so i think i might give it a shot. however, i also hear that there are outsourcing issues and whatnot, so i'm a bit concerned.

i'm a pretty technical person and i like math and science (i hope this isn't surprising seeing that i'm posting in an engineering forum). basically, i'm either going to major in chemical engineering, or i'll double major in math and accounting with a minor in finance, and i need help to decide which one.

i should note that the latter choice isn't a real double major with a minor. i'm at a university where there's a math/accounting program and there are options within it that are pretty much minors. that is, there's no way to go around the math and accounting double major. there are other options like actuarial science and operations research but i'm not too interested in those.
