Petroleum Engineering has the best pay and job prospects of all bachelor’s degrees.

However, college, especially business education tends to remove the entrepreneurial spirit from a lot of people. The point is that a college education does little to help someone start a business. And a business education tends to make it harder as a business degree is basically about how to run a fairly large company that already exists.

You don’t need a degree to know to operate your own business some day. But if in terms of employment, it really depends where you are at and what type of economy is working in the region where you live or intend to go. A business degree is always good. But even if you want to do something in the sciences like medicine, you can still operate your own clinic some day as a doctor and you won’t be like an employee. The scope is so wide.

Good luck and hope you make the right choice.
