I think I might want to major in something like genetic engineering where you work with genes and stuff like that. My first question is, is genetic engineering the same as biological engineering? Basically no colleges semi to offer a genetic engineering major but some offer a food, agriculture, and biological engineering degree and you specialize in one of the three but the degree says all three. Is this actually real engineering and would this degree lead to the type of job I want? I don’t really want to work with food; I want to work with animal and maybe some plant genes.
Example of degree at my state college:

I did a search on the ABET website for accredited programs, and you’re right. There is no such thing as an accredited program for genetic engineering. I actually can’t find a list of all the ABET accredited degrees on their website. The closest I could find for a list is this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_engineering_branches
Good luck & aloha. 
Thanks for the quick reply and good link! I think I might major in mechanical and then get a masters in bioengineering.
“Genetic engineering” is a bit misleading because it’s “engineering” in the colloquial sense, in the sense you might find in a dictionary, but it’s not engineering in an academic or professional sense. Genetic engineering refers to the manipulation of genes, and the reason you won’t find a major by this name is because it’s a niche topic encompassed by biochemistry/molecular biology. “Engineering,” on the other hand, refers to disciplines such as mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, chemical engineering, etc. and areas that are a hybrid of several of these core disciplines, such as biomedical engineering or biological engineering, which combine biology, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, and electrical engineering. Engineering–including biological engineering or biomedical engineering–involves the use of quantitative methods and design, math such as multivariable calculus and differential equations and linear algebra, programming/code, and software packages to solve problems.
In other words, “genetic engineering” isn’t engineering. It’s biochemistry and molecular/cell biology. Some areas of biological engineering might involve these things, but they’re not the same thing. If you are interested in genetic engineering, look for universities that offer programs in molecular or cell biology or biochemistry.
On the other hand, if you’re interested in cell or tissue mechanics, biological fluid micromechanics, biologically inspired devices and/or robotics, biomedical devices and prosthetics, renewable energy, synthetic biological materials, biological process design, etc. then study engineering.
Thanks, that was a great answer.
