Talking Point: |
The last AAPG study in 2003 showed that over half of all geoscience grads in the US and Canada went to work in envrionmental fields, with the rest split nearly evenly between oil and gas, teaching, and government jobs. European statistics show a similar lack of interest in joining our profession. This may result partly from development of rewarding careers in environmental geoscience, but another cause has been steady, longstanding attrition in petroleum industry jobs. |
These slides have been provided for use as presentations to students considering a career in the petroleum industry. You are permitted to use them individually or as a collection and adapt them to the needs of the presentation you are preparing. They are designed primarily for the use of those acting under the Visiting Geoloscientists' Program managed by the AAPG and should be credited as such upon their use.
