Chemical engineering does not close the door to research (at least in the U.S.) I feel that would be your best option. You may find out you don't enjoy research, and you'd have a career to fall back on. Or, you might find out you do enjoy research, and you can pursue graduate studies in either...
I don't have to take it. I will be a senior in chemical engineering next semester and plan on going to graduate school. I have heard nothing but horror stories about P-chem, but I can't help but 1) have a slight interest in the topics (I've already taken 2 semesters of thermo), and 2)feel I will...
I'm in the same position. Just to clarify, you all are saying that this semester (spring, junior) is the last semester that matters grade-wise?!? Would it be acceptable for me to not try as hard in my fall semester so that I can focus on applications, research, and my sport? I'm talking about...
Thanks for the encouragement. :) I think I was just hitting a low spot the past few days and have re-set my sights on grad school. I can't really imagine myself not doing research.
Hi all,
I've browsed this form for a while and have gotten some help but now need to ask some personal advice.
I'm currently a junior in chemical engineering at a top-20 engineering school. I don't know what I want to do with my life. My original plan was to go to grad school, get a PhD...
