This discipline represents a specialized branch of engineering that is intimately connected with the production of hydrocarbons, which could be either crude oil or natural gas. The processes of exploration and production are the linchpins of the oil and gas industry. This field is dedicated to the discovery and extraction of these vital resources, playing a crucial role in powering our world and driving numerous sectors of the global economy.

The Heat and Fluids Orientation, a specialized area within the field of Mechanical Engineering, focuses on designing and computing the components of systems that fundamentally operate on energy conversion, heat transfer, and mass transfer. This orientation is integral to the understanding and application of principles that govern the transformation and movement of energy and matter.

Solid mechanics, a subfield of mechanical engineering, investigates the behavior of materials and their engineering applications through numerical, analytical, and experimental methods. The majority of research in this area focuses on failure analysis, the relationship between structure and material, numerical methods such as the finite element method, and composites.

Chemical Engineering, a field often pursued through national mathematics competitions, has piqued the interest of many chemistry enthusiasts. However, due to limited exposure to the discipline at the university level, there are few courses directly related to this field. Success in Chemical Engineering requires a robust foundation in mathematics. If you possess strong mathematical skills, particularly in solving equations and performing calculations, you would likely find this field both challenging and rewarding.

This field encompasses the initiation and upkeep of heating, cooling, and electrical power generation equipment, including generators, substations, and other electrical apparatus used in industries or large buildings. Additionally, it involves the exploration of new sources of electrical energy, a pursuit undertaken within various subfields of this discipline.
