I feel like choosing employment by industry or field of interest is silly. I thought clinical coding would be a good career because I'm interested in encylopediac knowledge of medical stuff. Beware a career in clinical coding if you are interested in medical taxonomy academically. Clinical coding gets low pay, repetitive, automatable and ut's a skill specific to hospitals so that limits your employment field.
I'm a high school senior from Europe and in a few months I'll be heading to university.
I have a keen interest in the human body. As such, I would like to work in emerging interdisciplinary fields, such as stem cell transplantation and suspended animation.
I could go on to study, say, Biomedical Science, but I'm also fascinated with Engineering. That is, I think that my aspirations, which are to improve human condition, could be well served from an Engineering standpoint.
What do you think? Would my interest in the human body and its applications be better suited for Engineering or for Biomedical Science? How should I decide what to study?
