<p>I'm interested in some type of science or engineering major. My two favorite subjects are chemistry and math. I am interested in biology (particularly botany and genetics. didn't like anatomy that much) and physics (liked mechanics, fluids, and thermo. didn't like electricity, magnetism, or optics) Would chemical or environmental engineering be good major choices for me?</p>

<p>Biological Engineering :D</p>
<p>But yes you would like those two majors, probably chemical over environmental</p>
<p>is biological engineering the same as biomedical engineering? since that seems to be what most schools have.</p>
<p>Environmental engineering sounds like something you would enjoy. I am an environmental engineer, and I’ve done everything from septic sytems to managing water and wastewater plants, also consulting for environmental permitting and site design. It’s an incredibly varied major. At most unversities, you would follow the core courses for Civil Engineering then take the senior level courses you find you like the best. To really get into it, you would get your masters. I was able to do that part time while working (and having my employer pay for it). In this state, you can get a P.E. in either civil, or environmental engineering.</p>
<p>You might want to also consider Biochemical or Biomolecular Engineering. In many schools, these are specializations within the Chemical Engineering department. The problem is that they’re not offered everywhere so you’ll need to look around.</p>
<p>Bioengineering is not offered everywhere, but environmental is usually found at any college you would look at. Its all about where you wanna go</p>
<p>You may want to consider an Agricultural Engineering program, if you are open to going to a land-grant university (that’s usually where Ag. Engineering programs are).</p>
<p>In an Ag. Engineering program, you could go in the food engineering direction, bioremediation, bioenergy, or ecological engineering. These are the most popular
bio-oriented choices.</p>
