I was talking to one of my college professors who had majored in Chemical Engineering and gone through NROTC as an undergrad. He mentioned about how because of his engineering degree he was given the choice of working with the boiler propulsion systems as a Surface Warfare Officer.
So my question is, how does the degree that you earn in college affect what areas you end up serving in? Would it be somewhat of a waste if I were an engineering major and chose to go into something that isn't related to that field? Would somebody who did take up an engineering job within the Navy transition better back to civilian work once they've been discharged?
