General Information on Undergraduate Program
The objectives of the program are to:i. Educate students so that their innovative capacity is motivated by teaching them how to learn, identify, formulate problems, propose alternate solutions and develop the capacity to solve such problems in petroleum engineering practice.
ii. Give opportunities to students so that they learn how to communicate efficiently, work in teams, and share knowledge.
iii. Educate students so that they develop design capabilities and decision-making abilities.
iv. Provide a basic science and engineering curriculum so that basics on mathematics, physics, chemistry and computer science is given. Encourage them to learn a second language other than their mother language.
v. Give opportunities to students so that they become sensitive to ethics of engineering, become aware of issues relevant to society and their career, environmental issues, health and safety.
