Petroleum Engineering from Marietta College is a Campus Bachelor Petroleum Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. Starting salaries for petroleum engineers are the highest of all engineering disciplines. Add a degree from one of the top programs in the country to that, and you can see the potential of majoring in petroleum engineering at Marietta. Here, we blend the best of two distinct worlds -- the hands-on, practical application of an engineering program and a broad educational background that includes courses in leadership and an extensive study abroad program. The result: a graduate who can think globally, approach problems analytically, and communicate effectively. Working on teams in an industry-style setting, seniors in the program work through a comprehensive, integrated engineering design project. The project begins with a discovery well drilled in the Enterprise Field, moves through drilling, reservoir, production, and facilities tasks, and concludes with the design of a waterflood installation. Non-technical professional components that include on social, economic, and environmental issues complement the project, thus reinforcing the premise that the liberal arts background our students receive prepares them to think beyond just the technical side of the petroleum business.
