engineering foundation?

<p>Hi all, I’m not sure if this is the right section to post this but if it isn’t, feel free to take the necessary actions.</p>

<p>My family is Taiwanese Canadian. I studied Sciences at UBC for two years before I started thinking of changing my major. For some personal reasons, I will now have to complete my undergrad in China for 4 years. The Chinese university is giving me the option of changing majors. After the undergrad, I would ultimately want to pursue a master’s in the UK, probably in the field of biomedical engineering or nanotechnology.</p>

<p>So my questions are:

  1. What field of engineering would give a solid foundation in those fields and have high employment with just an undergrad? I realize all engineering courses have similar foundations but my perception is that material engineering would be better in terms of my master’s than something like civil engineering for example.
  2. How are Chinese universities known for their engineering courses? I heard from a friend the Chinese are good at building railroads.</p>

<p>Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!</p>
