<p>I'm a freshman in college and I'm planning on getting a masters degree in Geology. I've pretty much set my mind on Geology.</p>
<p>They are currently in a boom cycle, so job prospects are good. However, things might change later down the road when there’s no more oil to be found.</p>
<p>Actually, I think as oil gets harder to find, and thus more valuable, demand for Geologists will increase. If oil was cheap and easy to find there would be little need for trained, and highly paid, professionals to look for it.</p>
