Graduate Catalog |Program of StudyThe program of study for a Master of Science degree in Petroleum Geosciences is selected by the student inconsultation with his or her advisor(s) and with the approval of the graduate advisory committee.The following program of study has been designed for students entering the programs at the start of Fall semester.The program assumes that entering students have fulfilled all of the prerequisites to enroll in initial graduatecourses. A full-time graduate student will take a minimum of 12 credit hours per semester following theprogram of study. Most coursework will be completed in the first year and thesis research will be initiated in thefirst year but done primarily in the second year of the program.Master of Science in Petroleum GeosciencesThis is an indicative plan only. As of the 2010 – 2011 academic year, graduate courses are offered also during thesummer term.TermFall Semester 1Spring Semester 1CoursesPGEG 511 Carbonate Reservoir PetrologyCOMM 501 Technical and Scientific WritingElectivesPGEG 595 Graduate Seminar IPGEG 512 Sequence Stratigraphy of Carbonate SystemsPGEG 513 Advanced Reservoir CharacterizationFall Semester 2Spring Semester 2Elective (optional)PGEG 596 Graduate Seminar IIPGEG 599 Master of Science ThesisElective (optional)PGEG 599 Master of Science ThesisPage 69
