<p>Heh. Good one, plasticperson.</p>
<p>My son's RA told us during orientation that petroleum engineers were earning $10-15k during their summer internships. This is VERY poorly documented. Sorry I don't know more.</p>
<p>we dont recruit at NMT, but as a mid sized natural gas producer, I think we pay our interns about $5000/month, plus a $1000 relocation stipend so numbers look right for a 'gross' doesnt include expenses</p>
<p>OT to rty456, you boys and girls need to get busy. I can see a rig boring just north of my ranch . Right out my side door. It sure is pretty. I'm leased but I'm not in the pool. :( Hut. Hut. Let's go. Time's a wasting. ;)</p>
<p>Compare it to Colorado School of Mines or U. Missouri Science & Tech (U Missouri Rolla), or South Dakota Tech.</p>
<p>rty 465, how is NMT graduates looked upon in the oil industry? Are they sought after?</p>
<p>How is NMT's computer science program?</p>
<p>I am really amazed at the material science program.
But as I am an international student, I am afriad that there will be a lot of restrictions for me.......</p>
<p>Curm's right. DD is having a blast in Albu., she has been snowboarding alot (more than this mom likes, as a D1 WATER athlete she is supposed to be bubble-wrapped!), been a guest at the Zuni dances, cliff diving who-knows-where, water skiing and tubing, camping and horseback riding and eating the best Mexican food ever at her 4-year uni!! She has made fantastic friends and is enjoying herself way too much!!!</p>
<p>She is at UNM but has friends at Tech, and a good buddy who recently graduated and had great job offers. Her federal work study is at the Med Center doing AIDS/Hep C research through a global telemedicine project. Loves her classics major with a Greek and Latin minor and an additional minor in ballet along with flamenco dance classes. She is also pre-med and has made Dean's List every semester.</p>
<p>For her senior year her electives include Navajo as a foreign language and piano thrown in with some biochem and anatomy and physiology.</p>
<p>The uni offers a great OOS scholarship called the Amigo. Also exists for Transfer students.</p>
<p>Now the problem is getting her back home (NC) for grad school!!</p>
<p>Kat</p>
<p>ps her brother spent the last summer there with her taking classes they don't offer at his ivy....he said it was a kick watching the registrar try to figure out what to do with those classes.....no articulation there!</p>
<p>Daughter has said these are definitely 4 great years!</p>
