Is An Msc In Petroleum Geophysics Scope Limiting? by joelbour: 6:31pm On Apr 10, 2015 |
Hi everyone. I'm a graduate of the Federal University Of Petroleum Resources Effurun (B.Sc. Physics), a prospective NYSC member. I narrowly missed the 2:2 line. (made a 3rd) Nothing to be proud of but its no use crying over spilled milk. I intend doing a Pgd immediately after my youth service in applied geophysics then proceed to M.Sc Petroleum geophysics. Pls i need candid advice as to my choice of M.Sc degree course. I have a feeling that an M.sc (petroleum geophisics) might limit my employability opportunies to oil servicing firms as compared to other applied geophysics courses such as environmental/engineering/groundwater geophysics . Plus considering my B.sc degree class, is it necessary i opt for the pgd and Msc courses abroad? Thanks. |

I understand there are some proffessional certifications i will need to acquire to boost my employability prospect but at the basic level won't an Msc in Petroleum geophysics industrially narrow my relevance at the entry level to crude oil prospecting? or do i equally stand a good chance at being hired by other mineral exploration firms? |

on't know about all those sciency stuff, but sounds like a good course to me. And I don't think u have much option of switching considering ur cgpa |

joelbour:I am a student of UI, (pure physics), I also have d mind of going further in petrleum geophysics bt I later found out dat it wld make better sense if one goes for a cos of wider job options rather dan limiting ones self to oil exploration alone wen we av other tings we can explore in earth.................geosciece/pysics or solid hearth physics ar prefarable bro! Just to widen ones chance of geting job...............my opinion tho!!! |

Dahyormine: Thanks alot bro @Dahyormine. Exactly my thoughts initially. Its quite vast in itself "petroleum geophysics" buh its relevance seems concentrated at pre drilling level. Other geoscience courses seem to have a continous relevance to related firms. |

Dahyormine: Hello , I studied Physics/Education with a very strong 2:1 and planning to do Master's in geophysics in UI. Can we chat privately,? I have so enquiries. This is my no: 08020751023 |

Mehhhnnnn.....this has been much of an heartache for me since April...I have been been in dilemma as to what option of geophysics to march into....Petroleum geophysics is economically enticing but so damn narrow....Still not made my mind till date#iamstillconfused |

Go for Environmental Geophysics & Geochemistry |
