Hi everyone!
I was wondering if I could get some help with regards to a possible change of plans. I am currently a junior at UC Berkeley majoring in physics with a ~3.6 gpa. My original plan was to pursue a physics PhD but I may wish to apply for a masters degree in engineering specifically aerospace or mechanical. Is it possible to attend a good/very good graduate school under my circumstances? Thank you!

Have you taken any applied courses? Is it still possible for you to take engineering electives?

How about a change of major? The engineering physics program at UCB is supposedly very good.
