Institute of Petroleum Engineering
The Institute of Petroleum Engineering at Heriot-Watt University is an internationally recognised centre of excellence in petroleum engineering and petroleum geosciences teaching. With excellent links to industry and innovative programmes that meet the needs of the international petroleum industry, Heriot-Watt is an exciting place to study as a postgraduate.
About the Institute
Based in beautiful Edinburgh, the Institute of Petroleum Engineering at Heriot-Watt was first established in 1975 – the year oil was first produced from the North Sea - to create professional petroleum engineers.
Since then, the diverse academic disciplines of the Institute’s staff have allowed the department to provide groundbreaking research and offer an unsurpassed engineering education.
Heriot-Watt University
At Heriot-Watt, the community of postgraduate students undertaking taught and research courses is 1,500 strong and has representation from around 100 countries.
Two thirds of the on-campus students are from countries outside of the UK. With this in mind there is huge opportunity for cross-cultural and interdisciplinary interaction. This opportunity has been recognised by the University through the creation of a new multi-million pound, purpose-built Postgraduate Centre.
What can I study?
The Institute of Petroleum Engineering offers postgraduate courses that are uniquely tailored towards the oil and gas industry. All of the Institute’s staff are oil and gas specialists and most have worked in industry previously.
