I would recommend you reverse-engineer it by employment. Look at what percentage of post-MBA employment is in energy (this will usually be in Full Time Statistics by Industry or the equivalent). Also, look at which companies hire from the schools. McCombs has 8% employment in Energy/Utilities (https://www.mccombs.utexas.edu/MBA/Full ... Statistics) and Foster does not even separately list it so it must be within the 6% (https://foster.uw.edu/careers/full-time- ... tatistics/). Companies like Chevron and ExxonMobil hire from McCombs. Therefore McCombs would be better for pursuing a career in Energy.

Good luck,

Hands down McCombs is your best option here. They also host an annual Energy Finance case competition. You will also be close to the energy capital of the world in Houston. Plus, Austin is a great town to spend two years in.
