Overview. The PhD programme in Petroleum Engineering is connected with research within each of these specialist areas. Within the area of reservoir engineering, research includes modelling and measuring physicochemical processes from pore-scale and upwards with a view to increase the amount of extraction from rocks containing oil.

The composition of this committee consists of the PhD research advisor, at least 2 other faculty members from the Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Department, and at least one faculty member from another department in the University of Pittsburgh or from an appropriate graduate program at another academic institution.

In order to receive a graduate degree in Petroleum Engineering, a student must complete advanced course work and demonstrate an ability to successfully formulate and complete a research program. The specific courses selected for the degree plan shall be a proper mixture of Petroleum and non-petroleum engineering courses.
