Newly Revamped program – Now hybrid!

Cooperative effort is increasingly important in the petroleum industry as teams of geologists, geophysicists, engineers, and operations personnel work together to solve complex problems. The Petroleum Engineering Summer SuperSchool is an intensive, immersive, program designed to provide the technical fundamentals needed for effective teamwork across the breadth of activities in the upstream petroleum industry. The program is a hybrid of six days of in-person, face-to-face learning coupled together with online modules to be finished individually over a nine-week time frame.
