化学和天然气工程专业研究生课程的目标如下。通过向学生灌输现代工程学的基本概念和实践知识，以克服其当前和未来的行业挑战，为他们做好成功的职业生涯以及对天然气，石油和化学加工行业做出重大贡献的准备，为学生做好准备在石油/化学或相关学科的博士学习，以及向学生灌输对其职业和对整个社会的责任感。韦恩·金（Wayne H. King）化学工程和天然气工程系提供开发跨学科专业以及天然气和化学工程更传统领域的课程。一些现代化的工程大楼设有实验室，包括单元操作，过程控制，气体测量和钻井设施。还提供出色的计算机设施。<br>
The objectives of the graduate studies in the Chemical and Natural Gas Engineering programs are as follows. To prepare students for successful careers and major contributions to the natural gas, petroleum, and chemical process industries by instilling in them fundamental concepts as well as practical knowledge of modern engineering to overcome current as well as future challenges of the industries, To prepare students for doctoral study in petroleum/chemical or related disciplines and To instill in students a sense of responsibility to their profession and to society in general. The Wayne H. King Department of Chemical Engineering and Natural Gas Engineering offers programs in developing interdisciplinary specialties, as well as in the more traditional areas of Natural Gas and Chemical Engineering. Several modern engineering buildings contain laboratories, including unit operations, process control, gas measurement and drilling facilities. Excellent computer facilities also are available.<br><br>The Master of Engineering Degree is a special program intended for practicing engineers. It requires 36 semester hours of graduate credit, including 21 hours in the major area, plus an engineering research project and report. Comprehensive oral examinations are required for all degrees and Approved minor areas include all engineering disciplines, computer science, mathematics, statistics, chemistry, physics and biology.
