Mechanical Engineering or Chemical Engineering?
Greetings,
I have unconditional offers to study either Mechanical Engineering or Chemical Engineering.
I've heard though that chemical engineering is quite limited and its harder to find jobs in comparison to chemical engineering.
Should I study mechanical engineering?

it depends on your skills both engineering are excellent if you are good at maths and physics go for mechanical engineering if you are good at chemistry go for chemical engineering.

Its fairly easy to get jobs in both, mechanical is more varied, u can work in aero, mech, some cases electrical, and biomed (with some modules ofc), but overall i believe since there are more mech grads then chem eng grads, pay tends to be lower, chem eng i think is the harder degree but pays better as you rise up, plus you can work in bio sectors like healthcare research and pharmaceutical well as chemical ones, and engineering design

Hey there , firstly major congratulations on your offers and welcome to the world of STEM !!!
Having studied chemical engineering and now studying a Mechanical Engineering specialisations degree I would say that it all comes down to interest and what you want to do with your career.
Personally I would say Mechanical Engineering is the most versatile engineering degree and if you are not entirely sure what you want to do or you have a more broad interest then it is a good degree to pursue and the industry opportunities are infinite. On the other hand if your passion is process engineering then I would say stick to chemical Engineering , modules such as Process control , chemistry and reactor technologies aren't covered in Mechanical engineering but basic principles are covered in both ( such as Fluid mechanics , Engineering maths , Thermodynamics , Heat and mass transfer and CAD .)
I hope this gives you a better perspective and Goodluck with your decision .

My advice would be to get a Bachelor's in Mechanical engineering; then, a Master's in a field specific to Chemical Engineering if you're still interested at that point. That way, you can always float between both areas with good expertise under your belt.
I'm currently studying Mechanical Engineering and as the others have said, it's a very broad course and will allow you entry into many different fields. A lot of people don't know where they want to settle even years after graduating so being able to explore different options is great. A Master's will allow you gain those skills specific to your desired career path.
I might be a little biased since it is my major so take what I say from an objective stance. Goodluck with the decision and congrats on the offers.
