Learning Outcomes


Learning outcomes describe the specific knowledge, skills, or expertise that the learner will get from a learning activity, such as the Inter-Institutional MSc Program “Hydrocarbon Exploration and Exploitation”.

Creating clear and applicable learning outcomes was an important part of the creation of our training MSC program at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. When developing the program, both professors, industry experts, and other instructors were clear about what learners should understand after completing their learning path.

After completing their studies, our graduates will be able to develop advanced skills and abilities applied to the oil and gas industry (e.g., basin analysis, sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy, structural geology, reservoir characterization, acquisition and processing of seismic data, seismic interpretation, geostatistics, petrophysics, reservoir geomechanics, production engineering, drilling engineering, reservoir engineering, etc.).

The demonstration of modern methods and supplementary software for seismic interpretation, basin modeling, reservoir modeling, and prospecting (Petrel Suite), well logging, production logging, reservoir simulation (CMG software), drilling, reservoir fluids studies, and monitoring of producing wells with economics and environmental parameters are also important expected learning outcomes.

Our graduates will be able to promote a culture of interdisciplinary cooperation and synergy between groups of geoscientists and engineers, simulating real working conditions in oil and gas companies.

Our students build strong team – working skills, but also independent research, planning, and organising skills.
