 DEPARTMENT OF MINING AND PETROLEUM
ENGINEERING
The Department of Mining and Petroleum
Engineering currently offers two undergraduate
programs namely Georesources Engineering and
Petroleum Engineering. Mining Engineering program is
replaced by Georesources Engineering Program where
three majors mining, hydrogeological and resources
engineering are conducted. These two existing
programs are designed to prepare graduates for mining,
resources, hydrogeological, petroleum, and related
industries both in Thailand and abroad. These
programs also facilitate graduates to carry on to higher
education.
Courses are designed to give students basic
knowledge in both sciences and engineering
fundamentals as well as professional subjects of the
fields. Optional courses are also offered as electives to
accommodate special interest of students or special
need of the industry. Practical training are compulsory
to familiarize students with industry. English,
humanities, and social sciences courses are also
requirement of the programs so that students have
opportunity to broaden their views as well as English
skill.

demand of highly competent georesouces engineers
which will benefit private organization working in waste
management and recycling and research institutes and
government agencies as well as modernized mining
and mineral processing and metal recovery company.
• Petroleum Engineering Program
The Petroleum Engineering curriculum for
undergraduate study provides core courses in all
aspects of petroleum engineering including rock and
fluid properties, reservoir engineering, well logging,
drilling engineering, production engineering,
production operations, natural gas engineering, and
petroleum economics. The Department also offers a
master’s degree program in petroleum engineering.
The program is specially designed for Thai and foreign
students using English as a program language. It is
designed for students who graduate with B.Eng. or
B.Sc. in petroleum engineering or other related
disciplines.
The graduate study curriculum provides an
extensive study in petroleum engineering which
emphasizes on upstream activities, oil and gas
exploration and production. This program will serve
industrial demand of highly competent petroleum
engineers who are able to conduct both scientific and
engineering investigations to solve various problems
related to exploration and production of oil and natural
gas.
Due to the rapid progress in engineering and trend
toward interdiscipline environment in industries, the
department also emphasizes on learning and
communication skills of students. In addition,
