Hi All,

I'm currently investigating business school options. I'm looking at top 20 options in the first instance, in the US but also internationally. I'm from Australia.

I was hoping to identify business schools that have close relationships with the oil/gas/mining/energy sectors, particularly from a recruitment perspective. I know there are MBA programs that focus on this area (in Scotland and Australia) but these aren't really what I'm looking for. It's more important to me that recruiters look to these schools for graduates rather than focusing my study on it.

Any tips on good top 20 schools?

Rice isn't quite top 20 but is very tied in with oil and gas, given its geography. UT McCombs would be a better bet overall, higher rank and same recruiters as Rice.
