Chemical Engineering vs. Biomedical Engineering?

College Majors Engineering Majors

<p>Which of these degrees has higher paying salaries after college?</p>

<p>Which major is harder?</p>

<p>Which is more science based/math based?</p>

<p>What are some possible jobs after college for each of these degrees?</p>

<p>Help me, I don't know which major to choose.</p>

<p>ChemE has more flexibility for employment…and often only a BS is needed.</p>

<p>BioMedE is more limiting, and it’s harder to find employment with just a BS.</p>

<p>You should choose the one that is most interesting to you, otherwise it will be difficult for you to get through the coursework, and to be happy with your career afterwards.
So do some RESEARCH into these majors/careers. Start with the Bureau of Labor Statistics (read through ALL tabs), and follow up with professional organizations…

[AIChE[/url</a>] - American Institute of Chemical Engineers</p>

etc.
You can compare the degree requirements on the website of any school that offers those majors.</p>

<p>what is high paying salary? 100K, 300K with stocks and bonds?..if you play your corporate games correctly, climbing the corp ladder to the top and eventually will be CEO of any blue-chip companies then your undergrad. degree does not matter. When it comes to high paying salary, it is not the major in college or how hard you study but how much you know the game and how well you are connected to the networking. Climbing the corporate ladder is kiss-ass business for lack of better word…/the end.</p>

<p>Thanks for the responses. I am really interested in both because i love chemistry biology and math so i thinn that i would be happy studying either major. I would like to choose the one that has more flexibility which seems to be chemical engineering</p>
