<p>My goal is to be a part of the construction of the technological future. There are many fields and subfields, but I don't want to be limited. Which study/studies will help me contributre to the following growing technologies all at once? </p>
<ol>
<li><p>Cure of diseases that are currently called "incurable". </p></li>
<li><p>Beginnings of SERIOUS alterations in genes (cosmetic biological engineering that will cause some controversy: includes DNA alterations that make someone/unborn child/plants/animals look however you want them to look).</p></li>
<li><p>Construction of lightweight, yet exceptionally strong materials.</p></li>
<li><p>Athletic improvement without use of currently identifiable steroids.</p></li>
<li><p>Animal and human cloning. </p></li>
</ol>
<p>These are all advancing currently, but in different fields/subfiels. Is there a way I can incorporate the practices of biotechnology, genetic engineering, genetics, biochemistry, biomedical engineering, biological engineering, nanotechnology, nanoengineering, nanobiotics and nanorobotics, in one (or 2-3) fields? I'm sure some of those listed studies overlap eachother, or perhaps some of them aren't really separate at all. These are just examples of things I want to be knowledgeable in, or have SOME kind of background in. </p>
<p>With that being said, what would I major in, and specialize in at the graduate level? Would I have to claim multiple majors? </p>
<p>THANKS!</p>
