Lordkratus: Petroleum Engineering is shi.t He's better off with geology/Geophysics. There are little to no jobs in the oil industry. PE is too streamlined,I'll never advise anyone to study PE as a first degree. I'm studying PE and in my finals and I know better now,wish I had someone to put me through earlier on. I repeat PE as first degree is a trap!!! 14 Likes |

No course is good or bad in Nigeria. Just get your connection intact. You can work anywhere with any course with your connection. I know somebody working in CBN with a degree in Islamic studies. Welcome to Nigeria. You can read what you think is the best course in your mind and end up roaming the streets of Nigeria for decades without a job if you gat no connection. Are you from Pluto?

Friend, geology is a good course and still relevant irrespective of the situation of the country. Not everyone will be unfortunate as you have read people writing how some fellows left their courses and practice something else due to the ills in the economy. That's how life is. If you are lazy in pursuing geology as a career, irrespective of other opportunities to parctise something else, if you don't approach life with determination and deliberation, you won't be successful in anything. I would advice, take the course, have a good plan should you not earn livelihood in it in the nearest future. You might even become an employer of labour as soon as you finish school. While starting the course, during hols find a company where geologist are being employed. Volunteer just to understudy someone to gain little experience. With that, you already create relationship and connection. Before you grad, you won't even be thinking of submitting CV anywhere. As the above steps would add up to your CV, give you a push up as a student of geology and also make you fearless about the future. It's a known fact that jobs are few or not existing in our country nowadays but if a company sees you have values to add to them, they won't hesitate to employ you. What we lack in our education is the employability of new grads from school. School only teaches us to pass exams and gather grades and scores but never prepares us to fit into the industrial sector immediately one is employed. No company will want to employ a liability but an asset. My first job came a week before rounding up NYSC back in 2012 because I could use softwares the company was looking for who to use it. That gave me my start and now things are lot different and still practicing what I studied in the Uni. Go for it, if it's for you! Just my one penny! 7 Likes |

Let me just be blunt here. It's a fucking waste of time and resources, same as studying biochemistry. Funnily enough, the course is so hard. I can bet it with you that you'll end up doing something different from that course if you study it. My advice is you start learning that thing you would do if Geology doesn't work out. Start now o. 4 Likes |
