The energy commerce track at Texas Tech is built around in-house company landmen. The juniors in those classrooms rarely hear a clear story for field work, day rates, or the brokerage side, and the interest spikes when somebody walks them through it.

‍

What you'll walk away with:

• What juniors actually know (and don't know) about field work
• Where field landmen earn and how it differs from in-house roles
• The seven-plus industries landmen now serve
• Why recruiting at this level is now part of the job

‍

Why it matters: The next generation of field landmen is at universities right now. Building a clear path for them turns a recruiting bottleneck into a hiring pipeline.
