I have a chemical engineering degree. Check the life expectancy of a chemist or chem engineer. 55 years. I abandoned my chem engineer degree for mechanical and electrical years ago. My 3rd trip to the emergency room convinced me. Chem engineers may be one of the highest paying of the engineering fields, but I want to live to retirement age. I have 3 friends who got out of the field for similar reasons. One is now a programmer, the second a mechanical engineer and the third an electrical engineer.
I figured there must be a drawback to that average salary straight out of college. Would you say it’s the hours?
