Living in UAE and with liking for physics , chemistry and engineering suggests a career in the oil and petrochemical industries might suit you well .

So Chemical engineering , Mechanical engineering or Geophysics ?

and thank you very much

Chemical engineering or Biomedical engineering sound like good options for you. Mechanical engineering would be good, but it does not really use chemistry.

Materials science/engineering. This has everything you are looking for. It is a very interdisciplinary field and lot of materials science professors have dual appointments in other departments. Two of the professors I worked for in undergrad, one in chemistry and one in physics have dual appointments in MSE.

Here are some options..

-Chemical Engineer: Mostly chemistry
-Eletrical Engineer: Mostly math. Some physics, no chemistry.
-Mechanical Engineer: Mostly physics. No chemistry.
-Materials Science/ Engineering: Pretty even mixture of the three.

Personally, I'd say either Chemical or Materials engineering. All engineering majors have math and (most) have physics, but only a few have a lot of chemistry.
