Ebook Petroleum Economics And Management Program Spring And Summer Terms
The IFP School is an engineering school which offers eleven Masters degree programs covering the oil and gas industry, the petrochemicals sector and the automotive industry.
The School‘s primary objective is to provide training programs that directly meet the needs of industry, enabling students to access a wide range of positions at the beginning of their professional careers and for them to be immediately operational in the workplace.
To reach this goal, the program‘s objectives are to provide students with the knowledge and skills they will need to perform efficiently as professionals in the sectors of activity covered by the various study programs, i.e.:
- the required theoretical knowledge specific to their sector of activity,
- the practical, technical and economic knowledge required by professionals in their field,
- effective working methods (project management, communication techniques etc.)relevant to their area, including the opportunity to practice these skills in a professional environment,
- general knowledge of the petroleum and automotive industries
- familiarization with the non-technical (human, cultural, ethical etc.)aspects of corporate life, with the sharing of ideas and discussion between students. In this way, all students benefit from the collective professional experience existing within the class to further their motivation for, and knowledge and realistic expectations of life in industry.Furthermore, the sharing of experiences and views between students creates a strongly multicultural environment owing to the wide range of nationalities represented within the school.
These skills and knowledge are acquired through lectures, tutorials, practical work, projects and training periods in industry. Lecturers at the IFP School come from a variety of backgrounds including industry, R&D centers and the IFP School.In all cases, they are chosen for both their teaching ability and their professional expertise in order to maximize the passing on of knowledge and experience to the students.
Course material is organized into "Teaching Units"to allow the content of the program to be structured around the fundamental themes of each domain.This helps the student develop a solid understanding of the material presented in the program, as well as ensuring the pertinence, coherence and completeness of the overall program. Each teaching unit is managed by a coordinator who is responsible for overseeing the development and evolution of the course content as well as the quality of teaching within that unit.
ECTS credits are allocated to each teaching unit and are awarded to the student upon satisfactory completion of the required examinations and/or other assessment in that unit.The primary aim of this assessment is to verify that the student has properly assimilated the necessary the oretical knowledge and furthermore that the student is able to apply it in the solution of a concrete problem. For this reason, student evaluation at the School incorporates a large amount of personalized, interactive testing (in particular, oral examinations and projects). This leads to a more relevant and complete assessment of the student's capabilities as it considers both the student's technical understanding as well as his/her ability to communicate this knowledge effectively and accurately and to apply it to a given problem objectively and rigorously.
The objectives and syllabus of each study program are discussed and agreed upon each year with the IFP School industry partners at dedicated steering committee meetings.These meetings enable the school to identify what evolution in course content or organization, if any, is necessary in order that students graduating from the school meet the expectations and needs of industry.
In addition, students are asked to fill out a questionnaire concerning the quality and content of every course and its relevance to the predefined objectives of the program. The results of these evaluations allow changes to be made to the courses where necessary.
To be awarded the IFP School degree, students must pass all the teaching units required in the program.This may include passing a supplementary examination if the student is not successful in the first assessment.Only one supplementary examination for each teaching unit is allowed, and a maximum of four teaching units maybe passed by supplementary examination.
If a student fails one teaching unit (or in exceptional cases, two teaching units)and the relevant supplementary examination/s, the board may still award the degree if the student's overall performance is deemed to be sufficient.In this case, the personal investment, progress and general attitude of the student throughout the study program are also taken into consideration.
