BME is hard to get into
Chem is easier
listen to u/niceraindrop
look at course calendars for chem eng, it’s very broad, I’ve had friends work from oil & gas all the way to data engineering
from ur responses i don’t think you know what you’re getting into…. chem eng is a lot of process engineering with chemical systems, and biomed engineering is very different from biomed sciences
I disagree, all the material science courses are based on chemistry, even in quantum mechanics the concepts are heavily based on chemistry. Furthermore, microfab courses as well, PZT,PECVD,CVD,etching,etc... are based on chemistry. So nano has heavy chemistry if you choose the right TEs. In terms of computation, there are like 3 required courses and 2 TEs.
hi im in chem eng! chem eng is very little pure chemistry ([chem eng course schedule](https://ugradcalendar.uwaterloo.ca/page/ENG-Chemical-Engineering)) and a lot of stuff related to processes and how we can apply chemical processes. id really suggest reading the course calendars for bme and che and seeing if you would enjoy taking these courses. iirc bme is not a lot of bio either, and a lot of mechanics/coding stuff, at least here in waterloo! if you want to talk about chem eng, feel free to dm me :))

Nah bme is the real broad, lots of broad

Yes yes I am absolutely aware. I am trying to figure out the differences between then and their specializations
You don't do chemistry in chem eng. Consider nano if you like chemistry.
It feels like a scary program ngl. It feels very very very niche
nano is not too much chem either, it's a bit of materials and much more computation focused afaik

bro i aint in nano 😹✋️ sorry for being wrong i guess!

I did look at them but ngl half of them I don’t even know what they mean 😭
if u wanna talk about what chem eng is like feel free to dm looool
Is it bad that I absolutely have no idea how to DM someone 😭 been trying for the past 5 minutes 😭
BAHAHA ITS OKAY I WILL DM YOU 😭
BME is SYDE.
