Going from CS to Engineering/Physics Masters

Currently a Comp Si student graduating in a semester. I’ve been looking at all my options but in all honesty I have no interest in being a programmer. I love physics and I also like engineering as it’s more hands-on.

MechE, Electrical, Aerospace, Chemical, ect. Are my favorites. I haven’t research much into computer engineering as I don’t believe it will help me with careers I’m interested in (Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics).

I recently talked to a professor from a university I always wanted to go to about requirements for MechE masters, he told me to not waste my money and that I would have to makeup for a lot of missing curriculum even if I did get admitted.

This leaves me in a weird situation where I have a degree in a major I’m indifferent about, wanting to change career paths but not knowing what to do.

Any advice?
