A mechanical engineering degree, as suggested above, is probably your best bet. You're going to have to do a lot of physics and calculus, not to mention statics, dynamics, thermodynamics and beyond. I hope you like equations. I've had a number of friends go through the ME program here, and it takes a lot of work.
My SO recently attended a career fair at our university. A contractor for the Department of Defense was very, very interested in talking to him when they found out that he was a chemical engineering student; unfortunately he wasn't so interested in talking to them (they apparently do work on both sides of the biological/chemical warfare coin).
