compared to other engineering majors (specifically chemical engineering), how hard is biomedical?

<p>I dont want to do something easy for college. im good at math and can understand science well (never tried physics though) and im willing to work my butt off for my degree. but i really want to know, how hard is biomedical to chemical and other disciplines? which one would you recommend? because if i decide to take chemical i will do a 3 plus 2 program with two fairly good state schools (fayetteville state and NCSU).</p>

<p>sorry for the long post lol.</p>

<p>There is no “harder” major. It’s all about individual interests and aptitudes. What is easier for one person is likely harder for another. Choose the major that interests you.</p>

<p>@boneh3ad thats true, but i like both subjects and cant make up my mind.</p>

<p>And that’s all well and good, but there is no objective answer to your question.</p>

<p>All i know is that ME takes a lot of physics, so you wanna be good at that before picking it. And apparently IE is slightly easier. With lots of statistics. Dunno about chem or Bio</p>

<p>As boneh3ad mentioned, the only answers you will get are opinionated ones. The decision you make should probably be based on what one you think will provide better opportunities for you in your career, if you feel that you like them equally.</p>

<p>Keep in mind, that it can be hard getting a job with only a BS in biomedical engineering. It’s a field that really requires a masters degree. Many biomedical engineers go on to grad school, med school, law school, etc. A BS in Chem E can be a terminal degree (or you can go off to grad school, med school, law school…whatever).</p>

<p>Picking a major simply because it is harder than others is probably the dumbest thing you can do.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t be too afraid about your engineering major challenging you. Any of the disciplines will be challenging. </p>
