Notes:


Block course electives are limited to courses that qualify as humanities or social sciences electives as defined by ABET accreditation criteria and the Tulsa curriculum requirements. These courses must demonstrate depth of study in at least one area rather than be simply a series of introductory courses.

A student must earn a grade point average of 2.0 or higher in the major (all petroleum engineering courses and all approved technical electives) and 2.0 overall to be a candidate for a degree in petroleum engineering.

Foundation courses in petroleum engineering include PE 1001 , MATH 2014 , MATH 2024 , GEOL 1014 , CHEM 1013 , and PHYS 2053 . A student must earn a grade point average of at least 2.5 in foundation courses. A student must complete all foundaton courses within three semesters.

A student must complete PE 1001  successfully in a single attempt.

A student may earn no more than 4 grades of F or W in petroleum engineering courses.
