The University offers an interdisciplinary specialization in Reservoir Characterization to students registered in an existing course-based master’s program in the Departments of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering or Geoscience. The program integrates reservoir engineering, geology, geophysics, and reservoir characterization. The student will receive the degree offered by the home program:

  • Master of Engineering in Chemical and Petroleum Engineering (MEng)

  • Master of Science in Geoscience (MSc)

All students will normally be considered to have full-time status. In exceptional circumstances part-time status may be considered and must be approved by the Graduate Director.


Geoscientists should contact the Department of Geoscience and engineers should contact the Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering for further information.
