Looking forward to hearing from you.

cheers.

Heriot Watt is the best, U can neva compare it with RG. The only skool Heriot Watt is competing with is Imperial college.
RG is a common school. Pls go for HW

the university you attended does not really matter copared to your abilitis and your foresight. I finished from a UK university, while my twin brother went to Heriot-watt, I have a lot of friends that finished from aberdeen, RGU, CAS and so on.... non of these is a gquarantee to success nor employment.... from the basis of mere human judgement, environmental friendlingness, and university ranking I would suggest Herriot-watt to you as RGU is only popular in Oil and gas and amongst Nigerians, while Herriot-Watt is well popular in all courses including petroleum and engineering.
pita

I suggest you go for Heriott Watt since it's Petroleum Engineering....Getting a job is not determined by the school but on your ability to get one through God's grace.
I studied Oil and Gas in RGU...so far so good.RGU will favour you if you have job experience.It's a good course no doubt except that you have so many nigerians on it.
Another thing you might put into consideration is to study in line with your first degree, it will go a long way to boosting your career...

I schooled in the UK bro. Herriot Watt is definitely the best!.....forget RGU. Oil and Gas firms like Exxonmobil, Statoil Hydro, Shell etc go straight to Herriot Watt & Imperial for recruitments

Guyz if u in Heriot Watt or have studied there or close, please can we talk more on life and challenges in school! if possible having ur email addy would be the bomb.

Thanks guys for your sincere responses so far. more is welcomed.

Oil and gas engineering is the same as petroleum engineering when it comes to employment or meaning of the two words. Which ever you choose between the two, your getting any thing reasonable after your degree depends on what you acquire from your studies be it harriot or others

Congrats man!!!

Head on straight for HW instead of RGU, because the later lives in a past glory. I schooled in the UK and am still based here so I know what I am talking about. More so, the Nigerian population in RGU doesn't make it as attractive as it used to be to employers in Nigeria anymore. Quote me anywhere, Nigerians population in the said department of RGU has been in the range of 70-85% for some years now, in fact, the department is now like for PTDF scholars from Nigeria. HW to me, is a better option and even the course.

I stand to be corrected please.

what RGU offers is not d same as petroleum engineering especially if u did pet eng as a first degree. u will find u r basically learning d course from scratch but if u did petroleum engineering as a first degree,i will advise u go for HW.I hear Imperial college only take first class pet eng students but HW considers 2.1

wow! THANKS SOOOOOOOOOOOO much for ya'all responses. From the polls taken on this thread, all roads will lead to HW by september
