Both Aeronautical and Petroleum engineering are niche degrees with major opportunities in Government and Public Sector Units. Opportunities in both the field are similar. Currently because of international oil price crash Petroleum industry is in bit of crisis worldwide. However I feel it's a temporary phenomenon. If both subject are of equal interest to you, choose your specialization based on Institute brand image, ranking and placement record.
