Actually I have been considering a variety of majors.

I intend to take classes in chemistry and physics this spring to get
a feel for them. I don't really want to do biology; I read a bit
on biology and was killed off by the terminology. Materials Engineering
sounds interesting, but it is not offered by the schools I was considering
transferring into.

Is physics a way into the field? I was considering physics since if I
fall short of a PHD I could possibly teach high school physics.

Thanks,

Steve
