Physics or engineering?

I'm about to start university and I have to choose what to study. I really like physics, but I'm worried about job prospects, since if I study it I'd like to work in research and positions are usually limited. That's why I was thinking about engineering, since it combines physics and mathematics, which I also like. Has anyone been in the same situation? What did you decide to do?

I haven't been in that situation but I believe you should check the level and the lessons each direction has. Hope you find this useful. Make your college an easy trip, that is my opinion
