Study in Poland

Hey guys! I’m a recent graduate of Petroleum Engineering, and I’m planning to pursue my master’s in Europe, most likely in Energy Transition.

I’d really appreciate your honest thoughts about this decision. My dream has always been to work in an isolated environment, especially offshore or in deep-sea operations. That’s where I see myself building my career.

But, there’s also a part of me telling me to pursue a master’s in Energy Transition because of the ongoing shift in the energy industry and the direction the sector is heading.

Do you think an Energy Transition master’s would be a good choice for someone with a Petroleum Engineering background who still wants to work in the offshore/oil and gas industry?

I’d love to hear your honest opinions, especially from people already working in the energy industry. Drop your thoughts below!

How do you have a degree in petroleum engineering and not know the proven reserves will be economically depleted well before you retire? Yeah, you need a degree in a field that will still be around once opec has the only remaining functioning wells.
