I'm going to graduate in about 9 months with a degree in chemical engineering. I was if you joined the armed services you start as a higher rank with a college degree in engineering and chemical engineering is considered the most versitile.
was wondering...would they put you on a non combat path off the bat. I figure basic training is a must.......and i know i can do that.....i was in marital arts for 10 years and my instructor was a seal. I bet the seal training is tougher.....but my 8 days a week of training (yes 8..not a typo)....i think i can handle that.
Just was thinking if they put you into a combat with a higher rank....you wouldn't really be qualified to lead other people into battle.
In the end...my question i s...would you be respected if you did that.

oh yeah..and when i look at job offers for chem e's...there is always a military position.
Also they have a nuke engineering position every semester for chem e's to train people in the navy. I think tahts a straight officer job (not entirly sure on ranks)......and you skip basic.
