>>14330109Well it depends on what you want to do within the nuclear field, both of those majors could easily land you a job at a Nuclear power plant. Anything from Engineering design jobs to operations ( RO or SRO) positions. Prioritize getting internships in the related fields , and doing research in the field. Like if your university has a research reactor etc etc.
Nuclear engineering is more directly comparable to Mechanical than it is to electrical. However , both will land you a job in the field regardless. Be mindful though , be hesitant about majoring in specifically Nuclear Engineering though - it will severely limit you into that field. So something more general like Mechanical or electrical are strongly preferred for job prospects.
I work in the Nuclear Defense industry , which i can help you with that path if that's what you're interested in.
