Saint Francis University (SFU) offers a four-year Bachelor of Science (BSc) degree in Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (PNGE). Our PNGE program incorporates a Franciscan approach with real world experience as an integral component of learning coupled with a vital liberal arts education. Small size classes and strong relationships with faculty are signature advantages of the learning environments established for undergraduate students at SFU. During the four year study in the PNGE program at SFU, our students develop a wide variety of skills required to be successful in the rapidly growing field of engineering. As a petroleum and natural gas engineer you can experience a variety of work environments: data analysis, design and modeling in an office; drilling and production operation in the field; drilling and production monitoring in the office and even from your own home; education at a university or in training companies; and others including management, marketing and consulting. In addition, you could even find yourself designing new equipment or developing new techniques resulting in your own small business in the petroleum and natural gas industry. Furthermore your workplace could be most anywhere of the world. To the well qualified petroleum and natural gas engineer opportunities abound.
