<p>So, I'm a rising sophomore at MIT and I'm considering pursuing the following degrees:</p>
<p>- Bachelor's degree in "Computer Science and Molecular Biology" (which is a new MIT major, relevant to bioinformatics and computational biology)
- Minor in biological engineering
**- **Minor in neuroscience (mostly because I find it so interesting)</p>
<ul>
<li>Applying for a masters in biological engineering in a 5th year program</li>
</ul>
<p>This combination seems like it would set me up nicely for work on the forefront of biological engineering. What seems especially cool is synthetic biology. If I go with this program, I could very well end up pursuing a PhD.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, I have only taken intro biology, so I do not have too much experience with studying biology so far.</p>
<p>Feedback is appreciated!</p>
