What would you say proved to be the most crucial skill to hone when it came to finding research opportunities around the globe relating to biomedical engineering ?

I am currently a high school senior and am interested in finding a way to connect my interests in electrical engineering to medical devices. I also want to look into ways of doing research in my future that provides me with the opportunity of visiting many different places and meeting many different people. More specifically, I want to research more into the realm of Neurotechnology and soft robotics. With the rising applications of AI, I want to find ways to integrate this into these devices to give even more opportunity in improving human cognitive abilities. I also want to research more into how to improve these devices to make them more accessible allowing for even greater rates of improved human autonomy.

Would Mechanical, Electrical, or Civil Engineering be the best fit for me?

I am interested in engineering and I want to stay close to the trades. (to be clear what I mean by the trades are the skilled construction trades like carpentry, electrical, and plumbing). I enjoy working with moving parts like with power tools, I like doing electrical wiring work, and I am interested in overseeing construction projects. According to my research I would enjoy doing something in each of the engineering categories above. Which one would allow me to be involved in the construction trades in a useful way?
