Which course has a better scope, hotel management or petroleum engineering?

Petroleum engineering is more theoretical, but hotel management can be interesting and practical. If you want to get better career options, then as per my personal experience, I would suggest you to opt for hospitality, travel and tourism. There is a lot of scope for hotel management in India, if done from a reputed institution. Hotel industry is on a high demand and has a wide employment opportunities. The hospitality industry is the second largest in the world. The demand for skilled professionals in the industry is increasing not only in India, but also throughout the world. The world hospitality means friendly and generous behavior towards guests. Apart from five star hotels, airlines, railways, ships, hospitals, travel agencies, call centers and banking sectors are also come under hospitality. Below mentioned are the colleges offering hotel management or hospitality, travel and tourism courses: 1. Acharya Institute of Hotel Management – Bangalore. 2. Amrapali Institute of Hotel Management – Uttarakhand. 3. IAM – Kolkata. 4. Aravali Institute of Hotel Management – Jodhpur. 5. UTM – Shillong. 6. HCMI – Punjab.

Petroleum engineering is a professional degree, where as hotel management is not. If you don't want to worry about studying then choose hotel management. Hotel management is mostly practical based. You can just enjoy doing it. In the present scenario where crude prices are low and many have lost their jobs because of this, its better stay out of it. One more thing, its really unethical to compare these two courses as they are like two different poles. First, be clear whether to do engineering or normal degree. You can also consider courses like marine, harbour, nautical Science etc.
