Hey guys, so I’ve been looking at some of the engineering programs at McGill and I’m mostly between chemical and electrical engineering.

Basically my plan as of now is to get a bachelor’s of engineering that’s well recognized internationally and find a career right after undergrad.

What I’ve noticed is that the description of chemical engineering at McGill says it has a small department, 60 grads a year, does that mean it’s such a difficult program that there are so many dropouts? or just that it is a small program normally?

I’m hoping for some opinions on whether chemical or electrical engineering would be a better choice if I plan on just receiving an undergrad degree and then going into a career with a big company. Also if anyone knows why the chemical engineering department at McGill is so small relatively speaking, please share. Thanks guys.
