I looked up information about a couple of trade publications:

The first is Sea Technology; Their web page is at:

http://www.sea-technology.com/

The second is Offshore Engineer; Their web page is at:

http://www.oilonline.com/Magazines/Offshore-Engineer/

The subscriptions can be had free if you get the electronic version, and "fudge" a little on your job.

Many of the advertisers are potential employers (depending on your chosen career path & degree).

You can read many of their articles on-line.

Well...I like the part about moving to Beacon...
I think that as long as the program at University of Houston is adequate, you should go there. 3 years is a not-insignificant time span, and you and your family's quality of life during that time is important. I think that the exact type of degree or study won't be a deal breaker for employers once you are out working in the field.
(My experience with formal education and normal employment is out of date, and I have never worked in a technical field, so it is possible that I lack data about this, but that's what I have observed.)
And again...I think that you moving to Beacon is the best idea I've heard all day. Week. Year.
