C - Technical Elective (3 credit hours )
The department's policy for
recommending a non-petroleum engineering technical elective course is that it should be
consistent with the career objective of the student. A technical elective course should
either be a 300 or 400 level course subject to the approval of the Advisor and the
Department Chairman.
D - Summer Training (0 credit hours )
Each student must participate in an eight-week
program of industrial experience and submit a formal report.
