- Petroleum Data Management: Oriented toward data and database needs of the energy industry.
On-Campus Delivery
The on-campus modality offers opportunities to study a wide range of environmental, energy, and geoscience topics. The program is not intended as a teacher-certification curriculum. Students admitted to this program are housed in the Department of Geography.
