UW Colleges

<p>I was wondering if there were any UW colleges that offered an undergraduate program for Petroleum engineering? I am not looking for expensive colleges, but if that is where I can go for Petroleum Engineering then I am willing to look into it.
P.S. I was also looking into Automotive Engineering within the UW system.</p>

<p>University of Washington system or University of Wisconsin system? Few colleges offer pet e, although a geologic engineering degree allows for entry in the same industries.</p>

<p>One UW that does offer PetE is the University of Wyoming.</p>

<p>If you mean U Wisconsin or U Washington, none that is ABET accredited.
For Petroleum engineering, you can go to a small private college with a well-known program in Engineering, Marietta, go to North Dakota or South Dakota, or you can go to public universities in Louisiana and Texas.

<p>University of Wisconsin, or somewhere close to Wisconsin, such as any Midwest University</p>

<p>I would not go to Marietta unless you’re absolutely positive you want to do petroleum engineering (and by that I mean, you’ve worked in the oil industry, know what the curriculum demands, and are willing to forgo the possibilities of doing other types of engineering). </p>

<p>The University of Tulsa is a good engineering school with an excellent PetE program, which might give better aid than Marietta. </p>

<p>My school, the University of Oklahoma has an excellent petroleum program and a lower OOS cost than Texas Tech.</p>

The University of Wisconsin has a geologic engineering program.</p>

<p>So Geological Engineering would be relatively the same as Petroleum Engineering? Is there anything close to Wi, that has a great undergrad program in Automotive Engineering? Is mining engineering available at any of the University Wisconsin Schools (or any of the schools listed above)??</p>

<p>I forgot, as a Wisconsin resident you get in state tuition to the North Dakota schools. University of North Dakota is an easy admit with PetE and GeoE.</p>

<p>Thanks for the Tip! I did not know that.</p>

<p>what North Dakota schools offer PetE? and are there any other states that offer in state tuition for Wisconsin residents?</p>

<p>Petroleum can be thought of as a sub field of Geologic Engineering. Different curriculum, and PetE grads generally have an easier time getting the most competitive entry positions in the oil industry, but GE grads have more career posibilities since they’re not just restricted to oil and support fields.</p>

<p>Do any states offer the same tuition for wisconsin residents as they do in-state students?</p>

<p>OP: I listed a ND school in post #3.
I agree that Tulsa and U Oklahoma are also excellent choices.
Marietta is very very good for Petroleum Engineering but it’s quite so-so in other fields. However it’s in the Midwest (although not close to WI).
MN also has an agreement with WI.</p>

<p>University of Louisiana - Lafayette gives in state tuition to the vast majority of above average applicants.</p>

<p>The Midwest Student Exchange Program (MSEP) is offered in Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Wisconsin. “Through the MSEP, public institutions agree to charge students no more than 150% of the in-state resident tuition rate for specific programs; private institutions offer a 10% reduction on their tuition rates. You must be enrolling as a non-resident student at a participating MSEP campus to receive the discount. All enrollment decisions are made at the discretion of the receiving campus and the campus may exercise its right to limit participation or set specific admission requirements for MSEP.” ([Midwest</a> Student Exchange Program |](<a href=“http://msep.mhec.org/]Midwest”>http://msep.mhec.org/))</p>

<p>Any colleges in there that are good for what im looking for, besides Marietta?</p>

<p>I was actually looking at university of Kansas for Petroleum Engineering, is that a good university?</p>

<p>I went on the website and did not see any Michigan institution, either public or private, who participates in the MSEP at any level.</p>

<p>Ferris State was on the list and so was rochester</p>

<p>I am strongly interested in Kansas University because they have Petroleum Engineering program that participates in MESP, the tuition in $10,000 per because of MESP. Is this a good school for Engineering?</p>
