Engineering physics?

<p>Would majoring in engineering phyiscs be the best major for me in college if I am unsure about the specific field of enginnering I want to go into?
I think that I will go to graduate school for either aerospace, nuclear, or biomedical engineering but I'm not sure right now of which to choose. So should i just choose one specialty now so that I have better job prodpects after receiving my bachelors or just major in eng. physics since I'm unsure?</p>

<p>I have always liked that major and seriously thought about it for grad school because it seems like the M.S./MEng in Engineering Physics programs allow more electives.</p>

<p>I think it is an excellent choice.</p>

<p>Now that undergrad program at Cornell looks daunting. I counted six free elective credits, lol.</p>

<p>Colorado mines has a Bsc ( EE,ME,CE) Engineering with physics. Its a lot of work though.</p>

<p>Engineering physics is generally not very much different from doing straight up physics. There are subtle differences, but it is essentially the same thing at most places.</p>

<p>That said, I have a colleague here who is getting his M.S./Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering after coming out of undergrad with a degree in Physics, so your plan would certainly work.</p>

<p>I’ve been thinking about this major too. How do the opportunities look for someone who isn’t necessarily planning to go to grad school?</p>

<p>I was at one time thinking about majoring in Engineering Physics.</p>

<p>That was until I met one of my dad’s friends who majored in that at Cornell and did M.S. at U of Arizona. He’s been unemployed for almost 2 years now…</p>

<p>if you’re unsure btwn grad school majors like aerospace, nuclear, or biomedical engineering …an undergrad ME degree will get you to either of those tracks in industry or academia</p>
