Topic: MSc in Petroleum Geosciences or Environmental Engineering?

go screw ur self

Petroleum Geosciences please!

@ Ikexzy; why are you so myopic innyour thought and reaction. if you dont have a reasonable advice to give the you keep mum. A wise one once said. even a fool when keep silence, is consider a wise mam.

@ Celodonian: thanks for your candid advice

Honestly, I think Environmental Engineering should be your choice, reason being that right now and the world is all about the environt, global warming, preservation, energy saving schemes....... the list is endless, you will find yourself almost indispensible in the near future. Go study this course, and come back to the country and work as an expert consultant with an oil company, or as a special adviser to the government on environmental matters , think about it, its always going to be about our environment as its the only one we have. Petroleum geosciences , frankly overrated, and definately oversaturated. So dare to be different?

Petroleun Geo is more marketable, It aslo depends on how particular one the school is known for.

Am also looking for such opportunity, pls could you guide me on how to ge such opportunity.

Guy,a capital (sorry 'bout d language) 2 Environmental engineering.do u really care if the ozone layer depletes...or oil spilling or 4 environmental degradations? Go in 4 petroleum geoscience if u want a career n money.do ur thing.......MscPetroleum Geoscience!

thanks house for your pieces of advise. I wont forget that in a hurry.

please other progressive members view will be appreciated
thanks y'all

...GEOSEGUN, read thru ur thread, & hav 2 ask dis question - WHICH DOES UR HEART TELL U 2 PICK? Havin read ur profile, seems PETROLEUM GEOSCIENCES is a mor COMFORTABLE choice, but wat CAREER PATH do u wana tow? If its OIL and GAS, any o'd abov is ok, but i advice u go 4 ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING, as most OIL & GAS Companies recruit 2 GEOLOGISTS/ GEOSCIENTISTS for every 50 ENGINEERS - TRUST ME; m der - as dey r SOLEY used 4 EXPLORATION, while ENGINEERS can do BOTH EXPLORATION and PRODUCTION, and 2 b a GEOLOGIST in any o'dem u hav 2 bring SERIOUS A-GAME! If u had admision 4 GEOTECHNICAL ENG, wld hav said go 4 it as dat wld hav BOOSTED ur GEOLOGY degree 100 fold. So, 2 make urslf mor versatile & MULTI-SKILLD, chose d ENVIRONMENTAL ENG. Bsides, ALL OIL and GAS Companies hav SAFETY, HEALTH, ENVIRONMENT and SECURITY Departments which recruit in2 deir fold HEAVILY alwaz, and with ur BLEND o'GEOLOGY and ENVIRONMENTAL ENG, u'd b a CATCH anytime. Nywaz, d BALL is in ur court - CONSIDER ENVIRONMENTAL ENG, but follow ur HEART...

@smartd1st; thanks for the advice
@Rev and Egbesuba you guys are tooo much.
@Jtx: thanks for the great analysis.
thanks y'all i wont forget that in a hurry.

I have good bacground for petroleum Geosciences and probably a passion. but atimes i feel like going for environmental engineering, talk about an oppurtunity to ba a geologist, envir & engrin geophysicist and ofcourse an environmental engineer. but i have little knowledge in environmental engineering and dont know if i will be able to cope conviniently likke that of Petrol Geosciences in which i am versatile, since i am a geologist

thanks once a gain house for your honest contributions

pls i have a Bsc in geophysics & i want to go 4 an msc in Geophysics or petroleum Engineering specializing in reservoir engineering. pls house which is better to enable me get a job easier.
thnks
