I have a degree in Mechanical Engineer. The good thing about mechanical is that it can apply to a wide range of jobs; design, manufacturing, application, quality, etc...
What are you interested in? Buildings, bridges, hydraulics, electronics, mechanical devices, chemical reactions, etc...? Once you figure out what interests you the most, deciding on the type of engineering degree should be relatively easy.
Personally, I have no regrets with getting a degree in Mechanical Engineering. When I was in high school, I was interested in taking motorcycles apart, seeing how a 2 stroke engine works, building go-karts, fixing tractors, etc... My Dad is a mechanic and he warned me about following in his footsteps due to the toll it takes on your body. So, I decided to pursue an Engineering degree. I had aspirations to become a Design Engineer, but I ended up in manufacturing.
Hope that helps.-Jesse
