<p>Can we do a pros and cons of my top two major choices right now.</p>
<p>They are biomedical and chemical engineering.</p>
<p>I too would like to know the pros and cons of these two fields.</p>
<p>me too… 10char</p>
<p>I’m not sure what you guys mean by “pros and cons.” Which field is better is just a matter of opinion. Obviously someone that finds BME interesting will think BME > ChemE and someone that finds ChemE more interesting will think ChemE > BME. What one person finds to be a pro, another person will find to be a con.</p>
<p>Chemical Engineering is definitely the more established engineering discipline though; Biomedical Engineering is just taking off. Accordingly, job prospects are generally better for ChemE’s at the undergraduate level. Many BME’s are forced to go to graduate school because of a lack of job prospects. But this could change in the coming decades as BME develops.</p>
<p>Also, keep in mind that there is a lot of bio-related stuff that you can do as a ChemE. Many ChemE programs (like mine) have a biotechnology concentration.</p>
<p>Well my wishes for this would have been like amount of work in college. Strength of the career fields and the oppurtunities that each one presented. For cons I was more wondering if the field is shrinking, you need a masters to go far, just stuff like this.</p>
