<p>I am looking at a geological engineering program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and I was wondering if it would be right for me? I can't decide between this and mechanical</p>
<p>-I would like to get involved somehow in the environmental aspect of engineering, and I think I would enjoy more outdoor work than office work</p>
<p>-I am interested in mechanical, but am not sure how much I love physics. I'm good at it, but I don't know if I want to be in a major that is dominated by it. I'm not sure if I'm truly interested in designing parts, etc. or if I simply like the idea of it</p>
<p>-I have a wide range of interests, and could see myself in many different situations, but I don't know what field I'd have the most opportunity to work/travel where I want</p>
<p>-I feel that there will be a growing need for engineers in environmental disciplines, and I think I would like being outside and working with the earth, etc but I do not know what types of careers I should expect in the geo-engineering field</p>
<p>Basically, if anyone could tell me what I could expect in each, and where the best opportunity to work in an environmental career with a high demand would lie. I'm torn, and since I have not had experience in either and they seem to be so different, I don't want to jump into one and figure out that I don't like it when it's too late</p>
