<p>Hello,</p>
<p>Clearly, I'm an undergrad Chem E major. My university has several options for specializations, and I was hoping to get some of your opinions. I've narrowed my choices down to either Physics or Materials Science because those seem the most interesting to me. A Physics specialization will require 6 additional courses while Materials Science needs 4, both with the same amount of credits. An advantage to the Physics option is that I'll be eligible for a Physics minor, which is not the case for the Materials Science specialization.</p>
<p>Some of my concerns are which will be the more versatile, which will look more appealing to grad schools/employers, which will help me more if I chose an industrial occupation, and how much does it actually matter?</p>
