let me add that besides oil refineries, bioprocessing plants that manufacture pharmaceutical products are very unlikely to be outsourced.
they are strictly monitored by FDA and GMP regulations. also, since each plant is unique, it's almost impossible to replicate protocols for cell culture maintenance and drug purification procedures.

for the OP, you might also want to consider a ChemE + econ combo.
