The bio craze is still going, but right now environmental engineering is huge. If you can put green in front of it, or talk about "sustainability", then everyone and their dog will throw money at you. I'm a research chemical engineer at a national lab, finishing my PhD in chemical engineering.< a href='http://Inspirational.booksharecentral.net'> My topic is ionic liquid delignification of biomass for green auto composites. I started in the solar energy industry as a semiconductor engineer, but got bored with process engineering and went back to get my master's. I've worked on fuel cells, combustors, microchannel devices, and a zillion other things. That's what research is like. But almost every call for proposals I see wants a focus on the environment in some way. If you go chemical with an environmental engineering focus then you'll have to beat recruiters off of you with a stick come graduation. Trust me.
