After my Industrial Chemistry Degree, Msc Chemical Engineering or Petroleum Engineering?
Hi Jarus, I am a student of Industrial Chemistry…and aiming to do my Masters in Chemical Engineering or Petroleum Engineering…please advise..
I will say you should go for a Chemical Engineering masters because a Chemical Engineer can work in a broader range of industries than a Petroleum Engineer. Every one wants a Chemical Engineer: oil & gas, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, chemicals and plastics, alternative energy, and so on. On the other hand, a Petroleum engineer typically only looks for oil & gas jobs.
Also, since your background is in Industrial Chemistry, studying Chemical Engineering is a natural next step but switching to a completely new field (Petroleum engineering) will be more tasking.MT

Hi, pls is it possible for someone that has degree in industrial chemistry and then switched to do masters in chemical engineering be employed as a chemistry lecturer in coe? Thanks
This article already answered the question.
The article didn’t answer the question of how to cope with the engineering aspect of it. That information is important, thanks.
I’ve been wondering too; should i go for M.Sc Industrial Chemistry after my B.Sc Industrial Chemistry or i should go for M.Sc Industrial Engineering and Management?
Please i need even additional information. Thanks for your anticipated cooperation.
Go for Msc. You don’t need another Bsc (in a related course for that matter).
Yes, the question is, which of the Msc is better? Msc Industrial Chemistry Or Msc Industrial Engineering And Management
Thanks
