Biomedical Eng.
(OP)
Hey Everyone,
I am halfway through my engineering degree and I am starting to think about what's next.
I have always been interested in biomedical, biomaterial and biotechnology engineering. The problem is that I heard that many biomed engineers struggle because doctors eat up the credit and are the ones making the money; I do not want to stay at a 50-60k/year salary all my life.
Anyone know anything about the subject and if it is worth the shot? What is the future for the discipline?
--I know most of you will tell me it's what I like doing that matters the most, but I also have other interests in engineering that could lead bigger salaries.
Thanks,
Olixus

The future supposedly bright, as long as we keep pouring money into the bottom less bucket that is health care.

Compare that to the doctors who only use the equipement you design.
