I will graduate with a BA in Industrial engineering from a university in Peru.

I was wondering what doors does my bachelors degree open?

I really like science and engineering.

So far i can only think of MBA, something to do with OR, stochastic simulation or statics. If i had to choose one of those i would probably go with simulation but i was wondering if i could pick something more ''crazy''. for example genetics, chemistry, automation, etc.

It depends on the institution you apply to and what they are willing to accept. Obviously those disciplines closest to that of your Bachelor's will have the least issue.
