Oil and Gas Engineering at Memorial University is offered by the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science on the St. John's campus at the graduate level, with study available through the Master of Applied Science, Master of Engineering, and Doctor of Philosophy routes. Both course-based and thesis-based options exist within these credentials, allowing students to choose a pathway aligned with whether they want applied, practice-oriented training or research-intensive study. Details of curriculum content and requirements are set out separately for each credential level rather than on a single shared page, and the Faculty provides supplementary resources such as funding information and guidance for prospective research students. The program suits engineering graduates seeking advanced study specifically oriented toward the oil and gas sector, whether their goal is an industry-focused professional credential through the Master of Engineering route or research training through the Master of Applied Science or doctoral route. It is aimed at those with an undergraduate engineering background relevant to petroleum, mechanical, chemical, or process engineering.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission to the Master of Engineering in Oil and Gas Engineering normally requires a second-class degree in an appropriate area of study from a university of recognized standing, per the program's own admission page. The School of Graduate Studies' general English proficiency requirement applies since the program page states none of its own: TOEFL with a paper-based score of 550, computer-based 213, or internet-based 80 (plus a Test of Written English score of 4); Michigan English Test 59%; the English Language Testing Service (the predecessor of IELTS) with an average band score of 6.5; CAEL with a minimum of 50-60 in each of four bands (at least two bands at 60); or PTE Academic with a minimum of 58 in each of reading, writing, listening and speaking. No minimum GPA, program-specific test scores, or intake dates are published on the program page beyond the degree requirement; applicants are directed to Memorial's graduate application process for the remaining procedural steps.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Memorial University's undergraduate application system opens one year ahead of each semester for the 2027 cycle: for Fall 2027 entry the portal opens 10 September 2026, the priority deadline (also the early-entrance-scholarship deadline) is 1 March 2027, the document deadline is 20 August 2027, and applications finally close 9 September 2027; Winter 2027 entry has a priority deadline of 1 October 2026 and closes 6 January 2027; Spring 2027 entry closes 11 May 2027 with a priority date of 1 February 2027. International applicants use the same direct application to Memorial and are only advised to apply at least 12 weeks before their intended semester starts; no fixed international closing date is published. Late domestic applications are still considered as time, resources and space permit, so admission is effectively rolling past the priority date up to the final close. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
