Corrosion Engineering Degree | Scholarships in Oil/Gas

[luxlucis]

Hi! I would like to ask if there is a university which offers a graduate degree in Corrosion engineering and have scholarships available? I am currently working as a Piping Materials Engineer in a Japanese company and I would like to pursue the field of corrosion engineering specially that it is highly in demand in the oil and gas industry.

If you let your fingers do the googling, you come up with the U. of Akron in the US:

http://www.uakron.edu/uakroncorrosion/

it appears to be a new program (First time in America!). I would contact them about the CE program and any questions you have about scholarships.

I would also suggest you contact the Nat. Assoc. of Corrosion Engineers (NACE).

Their Foundation has more information about becoming a CE.

Good Luck!

Hello! Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, there are several universities that offer graduate degrees in Corrosion Engineering, such as the University of Akron, Ohio State University, and the University of Manchester. These programs typically cover topics such as corrosion control, materials selection, and failure analysis in various industries, including oil and gas.

In terms of scholarships, there are also many opportunities available for students pursuing a degree in Corrosion Engineering. One example is the NACE Foundation's Corrosion Engineering Scholarship, which provides financial support to students studying corrosion engineering and related fields. Additionally, some universities may offer their own scholarships or financial aid options for graduate students.

I highly recommend researching and applying for scholarships that align with your academic and career goals. You may also consider reaching out to your employer or other organizations in the oil and gas industry for potential funding opportunities.

Best of luck in your pursuit of a Corrosion Engineering degree! It is a valuable and highly sought-after field in the oil and gas industry, and I am confident that your skills and knowledge will be in high demand.
