Program Outcomes

Graduates of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering M.S. Program are expected to develop the following knowledge, skills, and competencies:

1. Acquire in-depth knowledge through scientific research in areas covered by petroleum and natural gas engineering (petroleum, natural gas, geothermal); evaluate, interpret, and apply this knowledge to solve complex engineering problems.
2. Design and conduct analytical, numerical, and experimental research addressing challenges in petroleum, natural gas, and geothermal exploration, production, drilling, and reservoir management.
3. Develop innovative and interdisciplinary approaches to analyze and solve problems in petroleum and natural gas engineering by integrating knowledge from related disciplines such as fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, rock mechanics, and computational modeling.
4. Effectively communicate technical knowledge, research findings, and innovative solutions in written and oral form at national and international levels.
5. Demonstrate awareness of the social, environmental, economic, and legal impacts of petroleum and natural gas engineering practices and integrate sustainable and responsible approaches in professional work.
6. Uphold social, scientific, and ethical values throughout the processes of data collection, analysis, interpretation, and dissemination in all professional and academic activities.
7. Work effectively both independently and as part of intra- and interdisciplinary teams and take leadership roles when necessary to address complex engineering problems.
8. Stay informed about emerging technologies and advancements in petroleum and natural gas engineering and possess the ability to learn and implement these innovations in practice.
