<p>Which one would be better? Careerwise?
Does Aerospace Engineering narrow your choices for Masters and Doctorates too much?
And what scope is there exactly in the field of engineering physics?
If anyone knows about it particularly, is university of illinois at urbana-champaign good enough in either of these fields? They are great in general engineering rankings. That much I have seen. Also are these very sought after major in engineering like electrical, computer science and mechanical? Because if they are I might not be selected because of my relatively poor SAT score of 1970.
Anyhelp would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>Aerospace engineering is a very narrow field. Most people work in Aerospace don’t have Aerospace engineering degree. They have CS, EE, ME, etc…</p>
<p>i was inclined towards engineering physics anyways. i wanted to major in physics (pure) first. but most of the best physics school are too selective probably for my sat score. and my parents would prefer applied physics (which is engineering physics for undergrad).</p>
<p>Physics is good. I don’t know what is Engineering Physics. Just make sure you take a lot of Computer Science courses.</p>
<p>Engineering physics is not necessarily easier to get admitted to in the same school compared to physics.</p>
<p>If it is an Engineering Physics degree it is probably as difficult to get admitted as any other Engineering. On the other hand, an Applied Physics program is usually not in the college of engineering and might not have as much demand.</p>
