<p>Is it better to maybe speciailize in one engineering discipline as an undergraduate (say EE or ME) and then go to graduate school for BME? Or major in BME as an undergrad. and then go to Grad. school to further continue BME study? </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>is anyone able to help me?</p>
<p>Biomedical engineering is a pretty specialized major. Electrical engineering would be a great, solid, undergraduate major to prepare for BME in grad school. I don't think it would be impossible to get a job with a Bachelor's in BME...but it might be harder to find one...chemical engineers get hired a lot for bio jobs because the disciplines are similar in many ways. Also, grad school isn't guaranteed...you have stay above a 3.0 GPA to get into a decent grad school...it's better to be on the safe side just in case. Do BME for grad school and work hard on EE or MechE or whatever you want for an undergrad. ChemE is great, too. You could easily minor in bioengineering with chemical engineering as your major.</p>
<p>I agree with Charman20. Unless you are 100% sure about BME and want to go get a graduate degree right after undergrad, EE is a safer bet. You can do BME after graduation with an EE undergrad degree. Also, it's a lot easier to find jobs with an EE degree.</p>
