Biomedical or Chemical Engineering?

<p>What is your opinions about these two majors.</p>

<p>my opinions is thats yous shoulds looks ats bottoms ofs this pages</p>

<p>If I had choose one it would ChemE, since it’s the closes to power engineering and provides the chance of creating manufacturing opportunity in the US. Biomedical Engineering on the other hand could be more lucrative since you could design organs, and with stem cell tech taking off more workers will be needed. Robert Jarvik a medical engineering MD invented the artificial heart, now today he get portion of cash from every heart implant. Just imagine what you could make bringing designer implants and patch people tissue up.</p>

<p>Personally, I think that biomedical field has been expanding rapidly but I rather go with a ChemE (or ME or EE) UG degree first. My reasoning is that with these base degrees are much more versatile if the industry or your job aspirations change and in most cases you can still compete for BME jobs after graduating or with a MS in BME.</p>

<p>ChemE’s where it’s at y’all! ChemE, always. Unless you just want to go to med school or something, then do w.e.</p>

<p>It depends on your career goals. If you want a job right out of college, then you might want to go ChemE since its alot easier to find a job and you can do what a biomedical engineers do. If you’re heading off to medical school, go Biomedical since the GPAs in that major are always higher then ChemE and you have more lab experiences. If you’re heading to graduate either field would prepare you well in biomedical engineering. Chemical Engineering will give you a more rigorous math and technical background then biomedical engineering, so if you planned on specializing something in that area in biomedical engineering then go ChemE.</p>
