Why earn an EER degree?
The current and historic strength of the EER program is in the area of oil and natural gas. The Jackson School of Geosciences and the Department of Petroleum and Geosystems Engineering, which jointly administer the EER program, have nationally recognized programs in this area. Students enroll in the EER program to add expertise in two or more of the following disciplines—geosciences, engineering, business, finance, economics, law, policy, and environment—to that they gained in their undergraduate degree program or subsequent employment experience. Most students entering the EER program plan on subsequent careers in the business, finance, planning, or management areas of resources. In addition to oil and natural gas, the EER program offers the opportunity for coursework and research in alternative energy resources, mineral resources, and water similarly tied to relevant courses in business, finance, economics, law, policy, and the environment.
