Studying abroad

<p>Hi guys!</p>

<p>I´m a dual citizen- Norwegian and American. I´m headed off to college next year, and have been accepted into lsu petroleum engineering and also at the university of stavanger in Norway, for petroleum engineering as well. </p>

<p>the UIS(university of stavanger) offer sounds really great.. Because of my good scores, I´m automatically accepted into the masters degree program. Everything will be free, undergrad + masters degree, and they will give me a loan for 2k a month for living expenses, of which 40% becomes a stipend when I graduate.</p>

<p>I´m almost certain I will take this offer, but are there any negative side effects to studying abroad when it comes to searching for a job? I want to return home when I´m finished...</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I’d be sure to talk to any company recruiting reps or friends/parents who know the field @ big petrol companies (Slumberger, BP, Haliburton) to see what they think… Good start asking here, but if you can a hold of a recruiter, do it.</p>
