Profitable future
Answered

I am planning to go to college for nuclear engineering, but it seems to be a small/dying major. Would studying nuclear engineering be a profitable career to go into?

Any form of engineering is going to be lucrative compared to humanities related majors. While it may not be as profitable as others, such as electrical engineering, it is still highly sought after as it requires a specific type of person to finish that level of schooling in that area.

On this site, it is #22 of 25, and considering that there are hundreds of majors out there, this is a very high ranking. https://www.moneytalksnews.com/slideshows/most-lucrative-college-majors/

good luck! I hope this helped.
