General Information

Description

Students acquire knowledge in: understanding the changes in which the Earth has grown, knowledge of origin and geometry, and formation of geological structures (folding, cracks, cracks, corals, salt domes) that provide petroleum engineers with an optimal understanding of extracting underground resources.

Expectations and Goals

A maximum of 5 goals

1-    Upon completion of the program, the student will be able to: observe, describe, measure and then interpret the composition aspects.…

2-    The graduate engineer will lead to a deep understanding of the geology of synthetic geology of mines and petroleum through: sub-surface studies and geological seam surfaces and their association with work and interpretation.

3-    Upon completion of the program, the student will be able to: assimilate, interpret, observe, apply, compare, classify and summarize, and follow the proper methodological methods in making the optimal participatory decision of the task assigned to him.
