No more petroleum engineering jobs?

<p>Is the supply going to out weight the demand in the petroleum buisness?</p>

2

<p>As long as you graduate near the top of your class and you should have no problem getting internships and/or jobs. </p>

3

<p>Do you think too many undergraduates are going into this profession? Would it be wiser just to major in CS?</p>

4

<p>Of course, more students are piling into CS as well. However, CS has more different kinds of employers that one can work for.</p>

<p>One cannot reliably predict what the job markets will be like four years from now.</p>

<p>Most people think of petroleum as the fuel for automobiles. But it is used in the manufacturing of so many things. Even the computers for the CS guys!</p>

<p>Food for thought:</p>

<p>I live in CA and i’m wondering is the OOS tuition is worth it or if i should just do mechanical engineering.</p>

8

<p>Many of the schools which offer petroleum engineering have the same or lower OOS cost than the UCs</p>

<p>What is your goal? Were would you like to see yourself in 10 years?</p>

10

<p>If you want to hedge your gets, you may wish to consider majoring in chemical engineering, which can also be hired by petroleum companies bad other firms. </p>

<p>I firmly believe that in the coming years as the Petroleum is decreasing the demand for Petroleum engineers is increasing. No one can predict what the future market would be like but if petroleum still has 150-200 years left then experience would get PE good jobs as well.</p>

<p>My goal is to become a petroleum engineer but I don’t want to graduate and have no job options. I’m just curious because everybody keeps saying its becoming more and more saturated.</p>
