<p>I will be receiving my B.S in chemical engineering soon.</p>
<p>I want to pursue R&D in biofuel as a career in the future.</p>
<p>What is your opinion on the path of:</p>
<p>B.S Chemical Engineering -> M.S Bioresource Science and Engineering (thesis/R.A program) -> PhD Chemical Engineering</p>
<p>The reason why I don't want to directly engage in PhD studies is because I want to experience M.S research before I fully decide to spend 5 years of my life in PhD studies/research.
The reason why I want to receive a M.S in Bioresource instead of ChemE is because my current school provides full funding (tuition, health insurance, etc) for their Masters students in Bioresource participating in a thesis program. Not many ChemE masters program provide funding like that.</p>
