<p>I was originally doing finance, and a friend told me I should look into specializing in GEM. I've tried to do some research on it, but not too much information comes up. Anyone here did this? Was wondering how is the job market and salary for this area is.</p>
<p>I don’t know much about it, but this is from the UT McCombs website for BBA students, I assume most were finance, who went into the energy field:
Petroleum Refining/Energy Average:$57,861 Standard Deviation:$4,969 % of students reporting:10%
The energy finance concentration at the MBA level seems to be a bigger deal:
[Energy</a> Finanace Specialization - Finance Department - McCombs School of Business - The University of Texas at Austin](<a href=“http://www.mccombs.utexas.edu/dept/finance/mba/energy.asp]Energy”>http://www.mccombs.utexas.edu/dept/finance/mba/energy.asp)
They landed jobs at Apache, BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, El Paso, Shell, Duke Energy, TXU, Citadel, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch and Wells Fargo Energy Group</p>
<p>I don’t know much about it, but I would assume that this will be in high demand in the foreseeable future.</p>
<p>thanks for the responses, any other input would be greatly appreciated.</p>
<p>I’m just wondering - energy management is a field that has always interested me and there just doesn’t seem to be many programs yet in this field. So would a business major/chemistry minor make sense?</p>
<p>So no one has specialized in GEM?</p>
