Hi,
I’m attending a 50+ Liberal Art college in physics and math, double major, I’m going to be a senior this fall and want to go to graduate school. I have major GPAs 3.81, 3,73 for physics and math respectively and 3.57 overall, GRE 670+800. I also conducted research at ORNL at material processing group on additive manufacturing, this is the only research I formally did.
Does anyone here know of anything about physics&math major going into graduate school in Engineering field in mechanical, electrical or optical engineering? Is it generally harder than BS, or engineering Bachelors? What is your suggestions if I just want to go to Engineering phd?

Appreciate any comments :)
