It's a versatile degree and proves you have problem solving capabilities - which future employers fully appreciate. Combine this with business savvy and a personality and you have a very bright future.
Yea i havent look much into how the process of attaining an MBA after my degree works, but i have heard that is a great route to go. Were you still working while you worked towards your masters? I hear that depending on who you work for, the company might even pay for you to go for your MBA.

I guess at the end of the day i should just choose the discipline that I want to most expand my knowledge in. This would be Mechanical. Finals start next week. my results will be the deciding factor of whether i do civ E or Mech E. either way I am comfortable with either degree. I gotta say I am excited
