Degrees in petro related things mean nothing. Find and independent and go to town.

If you go work for one of the Big Boys, you are in for 10 years of misery. I know you know this.

As for your more direct question...

I've never seen a science field where a MS in a specific degree is negated by a BS is a slightly less specific degree. Your MS in petro engineering will be fine with the minor. Companies won't look away just because your BS isn't exactly "right".

I had to look up my degrees to make sure that...oh yeah, none of them have a damned thing to do with petro. Go independent! More and more companies are calling us and asking how the Mike experiment worked. Sammy's right, they're desperate. However, they're not desperate for a bunch of UofH petro grads who have been told that they're worth $100K starting.
