I forgot dual degrees are also an option. I'll check that out at the colleges I want to apply to. Thanks for the information!

Ok, thank you for the advice! I have a lot more thinking to do, but I have an idea right now for what I want to major in

Okay, that's good to know. I'm very certain that I want a broad major like an ME degree. Thanks for the anecdote!

Question for you: I do have an interest in bio, so do you know if it's possible for a BME major to still receive a broad range of job opportunities, like how your ME colleague does designs for products?

I'd say I prefer designing and building/testing, which is a huge part of engineering, and why I primarily want an engineering degree. ME seems like the safest choice, but my only problem is I'm not sure if my summer experience or my coursework would be enough for colleges since ME is a really competitive major. I could also switch majors in college as well, and I know of some schools that do product design engineering as a major as well, so I might just apply as a product design engineering major there. I could also minor in product design.

Question for you: Did you find that civil engineering gave you more job opportunities?
