If so, I think it's safe to say any degree that's related to pure science here just isn't as valued as they are in other developed countries. But I dare to say a physics degree can prepare you better than a chemistry degree when you're trying to venture in the engineering fields because even chemical engineering is more to physics than chemistry, not to mention the other 3 main engineering categories are basically physics. All in all, I think it comes down to your interest in them already since they're equally mediocre in terms of job prospect from what others said...

they do not need any certs, they just apply for engineer post and get accepted. Thast all.

Noawadays engineer post need not be a person from engineering degree pun.

A chemistry, statistics, mathmatics, physics or biology graduates can do much as well.

Thank you for your reply.

I was actually interested in Biomedical Science and was actively searching/enquiring/checking out those posts that's related to Biomedical Science degree and ended up with disappointment as many have claimed that it turned out to be awful. Pay wise, career wise etc. Many of them have ended up in sales line or doing something irrelevant.

Therefore, I was advised to really think carefully before making any decision.

I was quite upset that it's not doing well for the graduates in Malaysia.
Since then, I'm kinda lost and now I'm searching for the alternative plan.

Mind giving me some suggestion?

physiotherapy, chiropractor, radiographer.....

Any science-related job is literally useless in malaysia, except engineering.

You can pursue BM, Chem, etc... Just work somewhere else, not malaysia.

The most versatile one would be food science. The most interdisciplinary course. You need Bio, Chem, Engi

Thank you and I shall check it out to see which fit me best. Thanks again!

I see. Food science sounds interesting and I would be glad to know more about it but I would prefer something that's not too general. I think chemistry is one of my choice now. Thank you for your valuable suggestion

Food is not general, I would consider it to be focused. Because you are focusing on 'food' only. Besides, you would be exposed to all 3 disciplinaries, an advantage IMO

Chem is rather general.

Good luck anyway.

Good to know that! I shall look into it! Thanks and really appreciate for giving me such idea.

Right. My chemistry is better than physics that makes me quite reluctant to go for physics compare to chemistry that I afraid I will not be able to cope well. Also, I have actually less interest in Engineering. Thanks and appreciate for your kind response which gradually direct me to what suit me the most.

Wow! This is an eye opener for me! Radiographer is very interesting for me
