But if i choose to go to NUS chemical engineering instead, i would be aiming for big O&G companies like shell and exxon. I do know Shell and Exxon have a higher starting salary of 3.4k-3.6k with at least 3 months bonus, but i am unsure of their salary progression 3 or 4 years down the road. Can someone please give me any advice?
Accountants are a dime a dozen. And many companies are moving their finance hubs or COEs out of Singapore. Go with chemical engineering. You won't regret it in the longer term.
