Bioengineering with Materials Science Engineering and Nanotechnology Major

College Majors Engineering Majors

<p>If I were to double major in Bioengineering and Materials Science Engineering and minor in nanotechnology, what would I be able to do as a career? I was thinking along the lines of engineering cells, creating molecular-sized medical devices, or creating artificial organs. Say, for argument's sake, I get a master's too, since many people say that you can't get a job with just a bachelor's in bioengineering.
Does that grouping make sense? If not, what should I be majoring in? </p>

<p>Here is the program I was thinking about enrolling in. At Penn State, Materials Science is a option for the Bioengineering major: Bioengineering</a> Major with Material Science Option - Penn State University </p>

<p>(Also, what would a math minor, a business minor, or a minor in a foreign language add? Obviously, I wouldn't and couldn't do them all. I am just curious.)</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>The thing is there isnt quite a job for this since its just starting. Depending on when it develops you would most likely be developing medicines and cells in a college or private research lab. Eventually the market will grow and there will be more of a field for this. I would suggest doing this major as it will be quite interesting and will be a big career in the coming years. As long as you find it interesting go and do it.</p>

<p>You could do bionanotech, which would pretty much get you infinite money when applying for NSF grants.</p>
