So after B.S. at Molecular Biology and working in a lab for 4 years, I feel there is no future as merely B.S graduate in biology and want to do something in change. I heard a lot thing of getting master in biology doesn't help that much as it only adds 2 years of experience in working, and I don't really want pursue PhD. because I don't like research that much. So long story short after my fail attempt to get in some program last year I thought I should just use master as backup this year in case I didn't get in and which I was right. Good thing is I choose Bioinformatics and Bioengineering that are actually on job demand and have better pay.

Originally I didn't think I will get in any bioengineering master program because I have literally no engineering background but still want try because it is really interesting. However, somehow I did get in SJSU Bioengineering program and now I am debating which path should I go to.

Right now I have two schools: Bioengineering at SJSU vs Bioinformatic at ASU. I don't know enough of these two schools and don't really know what field I should go to. I hope someone can help me detail on advantage and disadvantage of these two fields, particular include:Job demand (for M.S @ California if best), Salary (sadly that's most important to me and I don't know if indeed number are correct), room of growth, difficulty(doesn't really matter to me both are fairly new to me), and some other stuff you guys can provide me.

Also if someone can give me detail on those two schools, are they good, do they have some bad rumor on the field that may affect you...etc.

I am still not finish yet with my acceptance as I still awaits SDSU(Bioinformatics) and SLO (Bioengineering). Even though by now if I have heard back I kind give up on them probably reject
