PREFACE
Curriculum development is a highly organized and systematic process and involves
a number of procedures. Many of these procedures include incorporating the
results from international research studies and reforms made in other countries.
These studies and reforms are then related to the particular subject and the position
in Pakistan so that the proposed curriculum may have its roots in the socioeconomics setup in which it is to be introduced. Hence, unlike a machine, it is not
possible to accept any curriculum in its entirety. It has to be studied thoroughly and
all aspects are to be critically examined before any component is recommended for
adoption.
In exercise of the powers conferred by sub-section (1) of section 3 of the Federal
Supervision of Curricula Textbooks and Maintenance of Standards of Education Act
1976, the Federal Government vide notification No. D773/76-JEA (cur.), dated
December 4th 1976, appointed the University Grants Commission as the competent
authority to look after the curriculum revision work beyond class XII at the bachelor
level and onwards to all degrees, certificates and diplomas awarded by degree
colleges, universities and other institutions of higher education.
P
In pursuance of the above decisions and directives, the Higher Education

Commission (HEC) is continually performing curriculum revision in collaboration
with universities. According to the decision of the special meeting of ViceChancellors Committee, the curriculum of a subject must be reviewed after every 3
years.
A committee of experts comprising of conveners from the National Curriculum
Revision of HEC in Basic, Applied Social Sciences and Engineering disciplines met
in April 2007 and developed a unified template to standardize degree programs in
the country to bring the national curriculum at par with international standards, and
to fulfill the needs of the local industries. It also aimed to give a basic, broad based
knowledge to the students to ensure the quality of education. The new BS degree
shall be of 4 years duration, and will require the completion of 130-136 credit hours.
The engineering degree will devote 65-70% of the curriculum towards engineering
courses, and 35--30% to non Engineering courses.
For the purpose of curriculum revision various committees are constituted at the
national level, comprising of senior teachers nominated by universities, degree
awarding institutions, R&D organizations and respective accreditation councils. The
National Curriculum Revision Committee for Petroleum Engineering in a meeting
held on April 24-26, 2008 at HEC Regional Centre, Karachi in continuation of its
earlier meetings held on July 31 August 2, 2007 revised the curriculum in light of
the unified template. The final draft prepared by the National Curriculum Revision
Special Committee, duly approved by the competent authority, is being circulated
for implementation in the concerned institutions.

RESERVOIR ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT
Credit Hours: 2+1

Prerequisites: Nil

Course Outline:
This course develops strategies for optimization of recovery from oil and gas fields, applicable to
the development stage as well as the production stage of field. Initially, a review of physical
properties, geology, technology, economical limitations, etc is made. Next criteria for various
optimization strategies applicable to the development stage are discussed and developed.
Particular emphasis is put on the inherent uncertainty in available data, and on the subsequent
flexibility requirements in the development plans. Examples from the north sea are used to
illustrate this important aspect. Then optimization strategies for the production stage are
discussed, based on practical experience from the north sea and other regions of the world.
Finally, field development plans for fields in the north sea are compared to observed behavior
during production for the purpose of developing insight into the uncertainties associated with
reservoir data and to learn from faulty decisions made in the development plans.

RECOMMENDATIONS
The Committee emphasized that in order to take full advantage of the new
curriculum, efforts should be made to increase the effectiveness of teaching
learning process. For that purpose, the following recommendations are made:
1.
Training of teachers in teaching methodology, increase teacher industry

interaction and regular participation of teachers in relevant conferences must
be ensured. Universities should take necessary steps and provide financial
resources for this purpose.
2.
The improvement in examination system to ensure that students understand

basic concepts and are able to apply these concepts independently.
3.
Teaching aids such as white boards, overhead projectors, multimedia

projectors, and laptops must be provided in all classes.
4.
The Committee recommends that video libraries should be established at all

universities to illustrate engineering processes and techniques that are difficult
to understand through books. The HEC should act as a resource centre for the
universities by obtaining and making available technical videos from various
sources, such as SPE, North Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT), South
Alberta Institute of Technology (SAIT) etc.
5.
The term is spread over 16 working weeks. One contact hour per week of
class-room instructions for sixteen weeks of the term will be considered as one
credit hour whereas two to three hours per week of laboratory work over a
term will be of one credit hour.
6.
Two schemes of studies have been developed to be utilized for teaching/

examination systems including semester/ term/ annual systems.
7.
For the postgraduate studies, the minimum requirements are as follows:

a) At least two qualified instructors having Ph.D. Degree in Petroleum
Engineering to be included in the faculty.
b) At least 30 credit hours that includes 6 credit hours of thesis or 30 credit
hours of course work without thesis.
c) The student has to maintain a minimum GPA of 3.0 out of 4
8.
The coding system for the courses should be standardized in all universities/
Degree awarding institutes.
9.
Curriculum contents are being provided as guidelines to meet the requirement

of uniformity. However the universities are at liberty to formulate their
respective curriculum plans.

COURSES FOR SOCIAL SCIENCE

U
Sociology and Development

(For Engineers)
Objectives: The main objective of this course is to apprise potential engineers about
social factors that contribute towards enhancing their professional performance for
the good of society and the country. This course is culture specific and has to be
taught within the context of local and national socio-economic environment. The
engineers are expected to supervise several people in different capacities and their
understanding about human behaviour is critical for their optimum performance.
Modification of human behaviour or getting work done from sub-ordinates and
seniors remain a major challenge for all the professional engineers. This course will
enhance understanding about the determinants of human behaviour, which
ultimately will result in improved individual efficiency.
