Petroleum Engineering Degree Information
| Degree | Curriculum Description |
|---|---|
| Master of Science (M.S.) | A total of 45 units is required for the M.S. program.There is a research and a non-research option. All students supported by the department, and students who plan to do a Ph.D. must complete the research option. Most students complete the M.S. degree in six quarters or fewer |
| Engineer (Eng.) | This degree permits more extensive course work than the master’s degree, with an emphasis on professional practice. The degree requires 90 units of course work and research beyond a bachelor’s degree and is normally completed in two to three years |
| Philosophy (Ph.D.) | Students without an M.S. (or equivalent) in petroleum engineering are required to complete an M.S. at Stanford before entering the Ph.D. program. The degree requires 90 units of course work and research beyond a master’s degree and usually takes three to four years. The Ph.D. is awarded primarily on the basis of completion of significant, original research |
