<p>At the bachelor’s degree level, electrical and computer engineering by a long shot over biology.</p>
<p>[The</a> UC Berkeley career center survey](<a href=“https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/Major.stm]The”>https://career.berkeley.edu/Major/Major.stm) found for 2010 graduates:</p>
<p>EECS (Engineering): 55% employed, 7% seeking employment, $73045 average pay (but note that most job titles imply emphasis on CS rather than EE)
CS (Letters and Science): 63% employed, 6% seeking employment, $76733 average pay
Integrative Biology: 34% employed, 22% seeking employment, $42375 average pay
Molecular and Cell Biology: 36% employed, 15% seeking employment, $40398 average pay
Bioengineering: 24% employed, 16% seeking employment, $51192 average pay
Chemical Biology: insufficient survey responses</p>
<p>And if you do want to go pre-med, you do not have to be a biology major – you can fit the pre-med course requirements around any major of your choice (although engineering majors may be hard to do that with in terms of schedule space).</p>
