Biochemistry vs. Chemical Engineering degree?

Question

Is a degree in biochemistry necessarily better than a degree in chemical engineering? Which is more coveted?

Answer 1

Speaking as an engineer, I would always say an engineering degree is more valuable. It has much more credibility than non-engineering degrees in the same fields. Also Chemical Engineering has many more areas of opportunity than biochemistry.

But what is really important is that you need to like what you are studying and plan on doing.

Answer 2

Both degrees can help people if utilized correctly, but being an engineer, I am very much bias to Chemical Engineering
