<p>Hello! I'm going to be majoring in bioengineering at University of Pittsburgh this fall. I was just wondering if anyone had some good advice for me as I start off to college. I want to start off on the right foot!</p>

<p>Any advice about being a bioengineer major would be helpful, as well as some of the challenges that come with it, internships, important things to focus on, etc....</p>

<p>I'm starting this fall in biomedical engineering as well, at georgia tech.</p>

<p>I've heard a lot of people switch out of it after the first year or so. Also, career wise, you're going to want to get a Masters or even PHD.</p>

<p>Look out for research opportunities, etc. so that you look good for grad schools.</p>
