the track from engineering into management is well documented, and sad really. by and large i think engineers make poor managers. i mean the world is ripe with poor management in general as most managers are about as bad at management as engineers are. MBAs are worth a lot of money with an engineering degree, but mostly the paper itself, MBAs in my experience are nonsense. worth a lot of money, but not because you are any better at business than anyone else.
just get the BSME, and let your career and interests take you.
