Students/Education
Bentiu University of Petroleum is now accepting students and will offer programs in petroleum engineering, environmental studies, computer science, management, and information technology.
The 18-credit certificate, available this fall, will combine petroleum engineering fundamentals with sustainability, energy economics, law, and digital tools to prepare graduates for a changing energy sector.
The free, virtual program is designed to help participants build data-driven capabilities for the energy industry.
