I have a background in engineering and I am looking in to MBA programs that tie Energy with other majors such as Operations & Finance. My knowledge on this is pretty limited but I will keep you posted on what I end up researching. I still dont know what colleges I intend to target that focus on this, however i do know that there will be a great deal of demand in energy..I know schools on the west coast do with more engineering but if folks can give me tips on where to look I will appreciate it

thanks!

You might check out the dual program at University of Colorado (Leeds School of Business) that combines an MBA with an MS in Environmental Studies. I stumbled on it the other day and thought it was an interesting combo.

I already have a masters in Environmental engg, so i will not be going to school to get anymore science knowledge, its more to see if I can tie up the business end of things to my science background and be successful

Price College at the University of Oklahoma specializes in energy MBAs... my good friend from high school is finishing there this year.

People,
Any updates on these?

I noticed that schools like Berkeley and Austin have a separate segment for the Energy field when it comes to recruiters. This wasn't the case 5 years back, this could only mean this is a growing industry. I am also certain that energy can be blend with other specializations like Finance, Marketing and Entrepreneurship, which is evident from the Energy Clubs various colleges have on campus.

My husband works in energy and received is MBA with Chicago Booth (also where I went). Of course, he is also a Texan so I agree with the posters who talked about regional focuses (at least for internships and post-MBA jobs). However, after Booth he worked on Wall Street (energy sector) before moving to Texas (where he ran an energy focused hedge fund before taking a CFO position at an energy company).

He works closely with many people in traditional (and green) energy and these professionals hold MBAs for a variety of schools (HBS, Stanford, Columbia and UT all come to mind).

Any top business school will have an energy club. Remember, the idea of business school is to provide you with tools and skills that can be applied across industries. You might be interested in more flexible programs (like Chicago Booth) that would enable you to take more electives in different "schools", but, you will also have clubs and internships if there isn't a perfect energy program at a school that otherwise fits your needs. Most of the people my husband works with today studied operations or finance (or marketing) and then applied these skills in the energy field.
