    Have my heart set on chemical engineering at the moment, haven't really got the money to move away from home to study it as an undergrauate. Wondering if it's a fair asssumption to make that (Excluding maybe civil) all the engineering discipline are quite inter-changeble. And, in doing an undergraduate in any discipline, to a relatively high standard, would enable me to do one of the master chemical/process engineering programs?
    Anybody have any past experience of doing this? Thanks Tony.

    Chem-e's are one of the highest paid undergrad degrees there are. In the States, I think the average starting salary is $80K!

    If I were you I would do the Chem-e degree, move away if you have to. Then go abroad and do your Masters in Petroleum Engineering.

    If you get a undergrad in Chem-e, you'll be recruited right out of Ireland on some visa, if you so choose.
