I was thinking about changing from chemistry to chemical engineering. It’s just immensely more useful, and many of the same courses.
And more interesting.
Good idea/bad idea? Whyfor?
any engineering > chemistry.
i was a CE major, but i got out of it.
CE = 90% math 10%chem
Basic rule of thumb i was told when i was still in the program was to get the math down, any chem i would actually need i could just pick up later.
For serious.no shit. But what i mean is you spend most of your time with a pad of paper and not actually doing work in a lab. So it really depends what you are more into. Crunching numbers or playing with chemicals in a lab.
What would you do with a degree in chemistry? Hardcore research?
forensics maybe
If I stopped at my bachelors it would be pointless. I could do the same work with my associates. Analytical. I can imagine I would get very bored. I’d like a job that gives me some creativity.
I really do love me my chemistry, for whatever reason.
