Yeeeepp. That's more like it. Found a couple of jobs under that. Tomorrow, if I get a chance I will talk to an advisor at HCC for this. I will also go to U of H and see about their accounting program.
I keep thinking about what to do. I have no idea. I prefer something like a 2 year degree so i can start making decent money while continuing my education instead of just 4+ straight years of school and being broke. I know i should choose something that i would happy in, but i want to make good enough money to where i feel rich being single. I plan on never marrying. So the more money, the better toys to buy and trips to take. I know i love being by the beach so what are some areas i should focus in if i want to make a move to a coastal city? Is Process Technology basically only for the south/gulf?
No, process technology is used anywhere things are manufactured. From cars, to beer and back again. Any factory setting has process technology engineers, aka operators. 90% of Process Technology is safety related (or it at least feels that way), which transfers to all "hands on" jobs. Simply put, you won't find a cheaper degree that makes you more money right out of school. Since the degree is at a junior/community college, you're looking at around five grand for the entire thing, including books. Plus they have paid internships for a lot of the students and most students are placed right after graduation. Most people in PT are just like you. Hard working, but harder playing. Most have boats, four wheelers, beach houses, guns etc. Since a lot of the work is shift work, they have a lot of 3 and 4 day weekends. Which means more time to play, but even better - more built-in overtime. Like most careers you get out what you put in. If you want to get your 20 years and retire, go for it. If you want to move up, there will be plenty of opportunity as plants generally have high turnover rate due to competition.
Best careers? Be a NFL or NBA player. And playing in the Euro premium soccer leagues is not shabby either.
They are all basically the same. They use curriculum actually created by many of the larger refineries in Houston - BP, Shell, Exxon, etc. I went to Alvin Community College (Alvin) but they offer it at College of the Mainland (Texas City), San Jacinto College (Multiple Campuses), Lee College (Baytown) and HCC that I know of, there could be more. I'd go to whichever is more convenient (except HCC, but that's just me). I liked all of the professors at ACC. It is a tight-knit group of people you go with and the classes are small, so the people you start with will probably be with you all along the way. As far as I know none of the process technology specific classes are taught online, but your general classes can be. This might have changed though, as it's been 18 months since I last took courses.
