<p>How easy would it be to get into a top 20 Ph.D. program in chemical eng/ materials science after a BS in Chemistry. How should you tailor your ug courses so that it is easier to get into chem E/ Mat. Sci? Thanks.</p>
<p>It is probably easier to get into a materials science program than chemical engineering. For the chemical engineering route, make sure you load up on physical chemistry and any chemical engineering courses you are permitted to take.</p>
