The model petroleum engineering curriculum is intended as an aid to universities worldwide that
want to start new petroleum engineering programs. It is not intended to be a “standard”
curriculum, in that no petroleum engineering curriculum would have all of the courses listed here.
Any petroleum engineering curriculum should educate students in fundamental mathematics and
science, humanities and liberal arts, engineering science, and the foundational course in
petroleum engineering. Most curricula will include some more specialized petroleum
engineering courses, like those listed in the model curriculum as petroleum engineering electives.
No Bachelor’s of Science level degree program could include all of the courses shown in the
elective list. The SPE model curriculum includes all of the educational areas needed to create a
specific petroleum engineering curriculum.
