1. Program Objectives
To grasp foundation knowledge and systematic professional knowledge in Geological Engineering;
To develop scientific research capabilities or the technical expertise in practical work; To show an international perspective and potentials of collaboration and innovativeness;
To become high-level talents of professional technologies and managerial skills in the petroleum industry worldwide.
2. Program Directions
(1) Petroleum geology and exploration
(2) Geophysical exploration
3. Cultivation ways andProgram duration
Cultivation ways: Three stages of cultivating the engineering master program, i.e. course studying + professional practice + academic dissertation. The professional practice stage should no less than half a year. Students should find an enterprise or a company by themselves to finish this stage, providing materials for their academic dissertation.
Program duration:3 years
4. Credit requirement
Minimum 30 credits in total, minimum 15 credits for compulsory courses.
