not him but for me I found Industry to be a better fit. Faster paced, more "real world" problem solving. There are some really good academia/govt labs dont get me wrong, but the cutting of cutting edge (at least in my feild) occurs in industry.

Your major ambition with likely hurt you later. Learn to be happy with the small, but significant things you can realistically do. Getting a 1% gain in some tiny industrial application really does make a huge difference even if it is not glamorized like people think. Think more about industry and job roles and then find the major that is likely to get you there.

Here is my opinion on it.

Material science is hard and very specialized, in the long run you can do cooler stuff with it but it is hard and risky.

Mechanical engineering is the go to engineering with a broader appeal and more flexibility in how you develop. Less glamorous, but very respectable.

Chemical engineering is somewhere between the two and probably has the best job outlook last I checked (that kind of stuff changes all the time), but is boring to start with.

See about getting a major in one and a minor in another, this opens a lot more doors.

Given my background in Material science which turned to Business after some bad times. I would probably have looked harder at Mechanical engineering with Material science minor as it would get me in places where I could later grow towards my real goals or the other way around as that comb goes towards my interests.

Sure is laissez-faire in here.

I hear there are ways around the speed of light if you use a shortcut
