Hello, I am 27 with a BA in Molecular Biology and Biochemistry from Rutgers. I am interested in Biomedical Engineering. I understand that it would be lengthy and costly to pursue a second bachelor's in Biomedical Engineering. I was curious as to the possibility of obtaining an MS in Biomedical Engineering (obviously after taking the GRE). Some schools have official or unofficial briding programs.
(By the way, the profile that somebody is an engineer. I couldn't do anything to chance that).
For example, I received advice from somebody about pursuing an MS in Chemical Engineering rather than going through and getting a second BS and that it would only prove to provide more lucrative employment in roughly the same amount of time.
My concerns are with regard to employment opportunities. Would having a MS in Biomedical Engineering without a bachelors in an engineering field hurt chances of employment?
I'm told 27 is still young but I just want to get this right.
