SHOUTOUT TO AUC
The Petroleum Engineering program offered me both theoretical and practical knowledge with renowned professors in both the gas and renewable energy industries. The exposure and extensive knowledge that I've gained shaped me into the Engineer that I am right now.
To all the great life and technical lessons, tough challenges, hands-on experiences here and abroad and supportive professors, I'm very thankful for my intense 5 years at AUC for raising the bar so high of what I can do and teaching me that one's potential can be limitless.
During my study, I gained the technical knowledge and practical skills that helped me to excel in any internship or academic competition that I participated in. The experienced faculty and administration ease the educational process. I am very thankful to PENG that shaped the Engineer I am today.
