Description
Program Overview
Join this 12-month Master’s in Geo-Energy with Machine Learning and Data Science, starting October 2022.
In preparation for the energy transition, you will study subsurface geoscience and engineering, with a focus on data science and machine learning. You will develop skills that can be applied to carbon dioxide storage, water management, hydrocarbon recovery, geothermal energy, and other subsurface processes.
The program will strengthen your understanding of numerical, analytical, and computational concepts, and is taught by experts in these areas.
The course is aimed at geoscientists and engineers who want to acquire advanced computational, data science, machine learning and numerical skills relevant to working on various aspects of the energy transition.
Who is the course for?
The MSc in Geo-Energy with Machine Learning and Data Science is suitable for science and engineering graduates, including students with:
a mathematics or physical sciences background who want to specialize in subsurface geoscience and engineering, or
a geoscience and engineering background who want to learn about data science and machine learning as tools for problem solving and analysis, or
a computer science background who wish to expand their knowledge of ML and observational techniques in the context of subsurface energy and storage.
Students are expected to have basic skills in coding and mathematics. There is a coding course in Python provided before the course formally starts to allow you to refresh and develop your coding skills.
Career Opportunies
Graduates of this course will go on to work in academia, or go on to work in:
large data and computer companies including start-ups,
consultancies offering services to the energy industry and working on natural geo-hazards,
the energy industry, including oil, gas, and renewables,
companies involved in carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and/or thermal energy storage,
engineering companies involved in the energy transition.
