Studying a bachelor's in Petroleum Engineering at The University of Tulsa

When I began my college search, I was looking at American universities with strong petroleum engineering programs. Oman’s Minister of Petroleum is a graduate of TU, so it is well known there. I was also impressed that TU has a Muslim Prayer House– it’s one of only a few US universities to have one on campus.
