The Petroleum Systems Engineering program within the Faculty of Engineering provides advanced studies concentrating on research in enhanced oil recovery (EOR), reservoir modeling and simulation, heavy oil extraction via SAGD and VAPEX methods, miscible and immiscible displacement processes, fluid-rock interactions, and carbon dioxide storage in depleted hydrocarbon reservoirs. These graduate studies culminate in master's and doctoral degrees. The Faculty of Engineering grants PhD and master's degrees in Electronic Systems Engineering, Engineering, Environmental Systems Engineering, Industrial Systems Engineering, and Petroleum Systems Engineering. A master's program is available in Process Systems Engineering, with a doctoral program currently in development. Software Systems Engineering is being developed for both degree levels. The interdisciplinary doctoral degree in Engineering fosters collaboration across the four established and two emerging programs. Students can also pursue a Master of Engineering or Master of Applied Science degree. The research-focused Master of Applied Science requires a thesis, while the Master of Engineering program, featuring a project report, caters to working engineers. This program aligns with the Graduate Cooperative Education Program, blending academic learning with professional experience to enhance career growth. Details about the interdisciplinary Master's program in Advanced Manufacturing and Process Systems can be found in the Interdisciplinary Programs section. Typically, students enter the PhD program after completing a master's degree. Admission requires meeting the entry criteria set by both the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research and the Faculty of Engineering.

Qualification Requirements
Applicants must have obtained a thesis-based Master's degree in the discipline to qualify as a doctoral student. Applicants must have academic credentials consistent with being fully-qualified to undertake graduate work at the doctoral level. The categories of probationary or qualifying student do not apply at the doctoral level.
An applicant who does not have sufficient background training or courses prerequisite to scholarly work in the particular subject of study and research will not be admitted as a doctoral student. An applicant may be admitted as a Master's student and be required to undertake specific courses toward establishing appropriate credentials, but any graduate study undertaken for this purpose cannot be counted as time spent toward formal requirements for the degree.
Alternatively, an applicant may be accepted at the Master's level as a means of illustrating suitability to enter a doctoral program, and after the first year may request, through the academic unit, a transfer to a PhD program.
