In my experience, it's far better to travel yourself than know people who do. Go for the better money, and use your vacation to see the world.

Ross Said:

If I major in ChemE and work in the pharmaceutical industry, will I make as much money as a pharmacist?

We Answered:

pharmacists make a lot of money, over $100,000/yr, you will not likely make that much unless you have a PhD in chemical engineering.

Keep in mind that you do not need an undergraduate degree to get into a PharmD program. I think you can get in after 2 years of college.

You will still make a lot of money as a ChemE, you should just major in chemE then decide what you want to do after a few semesters. You should do what you think you will like more rather than what pays more.
