<p>Can anyone tell me a little bit about each major and the similarities and differences because im trying to decide between the two!!! I want to do cheme but rankings show its not that good at ucsd and does that even matter? I know chemical engineering used to be part of the mechanical engineering dept so does that mean its not that good if it wasn't a stand alone department?</p>
<p>You might start by reading through this: [UCSD</a> General Catalog 2011-2012](<a href=“http://www.ucsd.edu/catalog/]UCSD”>General Catalog 2023–24 Catalog of Record)</p>
<p>And then possibly the departmental homepages for each major.</p>
