Hanyuye Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Hi GC'ers, This is my second application season. I'm applying to graduate programs in Applied Math and Petroleum Engineering. I graduated with a BA in English in several years ago and now returning to my roots, thus taking advanced undergrad math courses. The main point is, I relished in Electrical Engineering shop class during high school and I want to engage in engineering again. Specifically in petroleum engineering, drilling and reservoir modeling/simulation. I love being in the field and the applied physics/math/geology/earth science of petroleum engineering is fascinating ever since I met one last summer. I've emailed a few graduate directors of PE schools and some of them have said that I contact professors to request them to supervise me while I take remedial courses as an graduate student (that's if get in the first place). Do I ask professors now before application season, during, or after? How do I approach this? I feel very clueless about requesting professors to supervise me while I'm a math major and having them deem me worthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
