You don’t have to do both to keep your options open. I chose neuroscience as a major because I liked my high school psych classes. Since then, my interests have evolved more toward neuroengineering based on getting involved in research. With a few extra classes as electives, I’m now in pretty good shape to apply to bioengineering PhD programs.
Also, whichever of these you choose, I’d recommend taking some programming courses if you plan to do anything besides medicine.
