Duke or NU？

^I am not sure about that. ChemE is the older discipline from which biomed or env engg borrow many theories and principles. You can actually build a decent biomed or env curriculum by taking classes from bio, civil, and chemE departments but the reverse is probably much harder. It’s actually a bit of an irony that Duke doesn’t have chemE but have the other two. </p>

<p>Furthermore, it’d be a huge disadvantage when it comes to recruiting. You won’t have a B.S. in “chemical engineering” and there’s probably not much recruiting, if any, from companies that like hiring chemEs (Dow, DuPont, Exxon, P&G…etc).

<p>There was recruiting last year from P&G and Exxon. </p>

<p>Yes, not having a CE is weakness.</p>
