View Full Version : It's almost time for me to pick next semester's classes...

Hello all. I sign up for classes in just under two weeks. I'm a freshman, and I am at a crossroads as to what my major will be. Currently I'm in chemical engineering, although I've taken no chemE classes. I really want to work with computational neurobiology OR alternative energy. I think it would also be cool to design medical technology or pharmaceuticals. I chose chemE last year since it's supposedly the most versatile and I really like chemistry, but I really DO NOT want to be stuck in production on a large scale...I also have found out that it's not really THAT much chemistry. That would be almost like working at McDonald's for me.

I can switch to biomedical engineering with the only consequence being me having taken an extra semester of chemistry. Which field do you feel would ultimately be best leading me to my dream jobs? I plan on pursuing at least a Master's degree in whichever field I enter. I'll probably do a physics or math minor to accompany either one.

Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated.
