Hi there, I'm also thinking of taking up engineering. Last week we had a career orientation. Well, there are lot's of engineering fields out there. There's the Civil Engineering, which focuses mainly on designing roads, bridges, buildings, dams and the like. There's the Mechanical Engineer, which focuses more on designing and constructing machines which are to be used in factories, mines and stuff like that. They also focus on creating and designing automobiles. There's the Electrical Engineer, which focuses in distributing electricity throughout a specific area(a building, a town, etc). They also focus in fixing and designing anything related with electrical machines(like generators, lamp posts, power plants, etc). There's the Chemical Engineer, I don't really know much about it but all I know is, it got tons of Chemistry in it. Maybe, it has something to do with finding a cure for cancer . Also, there's the computer engineering, focusing on designing and creating computer programs, there's also a part where you focus more on hardware. Aside from the ones listed above, there are more engineering branches out there like Robotics Engineering, Electronics Engineering(not to be confused with electrical eng.), etc.
I think you'll fit in either computer engineering or chemical engineering(since you love chemistry). But take note that the decision is yours. Choose the one you enjoy most. It's not about the money you'll earn, it's about your passion on that certain field. Hope this helps
