<p>I recently was accepted. This school isn't exactly known for engineering (only E-major they have), but would it be credible in the working world vs people with such majors from the Big 10 schools, USC, Tech schools, etc?</p>
<p>Any imput would be appreciated :)</p>
<p>It’s ABET accredited…</p>
<p>Does that mean my degree will be well regarded enough to get me a decent job in the future? I recently read that this field is currently the highest paying of any, so I assume it is really competitive. </p>
<p>Will I be able to compete against those from more traditional E-schools such as the tech institutes or the flagship state uni’?</p>
<p>Petroleum engineering has booms and busts as the price of oil fluctuates. Layoffs and fat paychecks are distributed accordingly.</p>
<p>I would be a tad leery of that program - what if you decide that you would prefer another, more general engineering field?</p>
