Energy Programs

Meinders School of Business offers graduate programs in Energy Management and Energy Legal Studies The programs are the only graduate programs accredited by the AAPL.

The Master’s of Science in Energy Management and the Master’s of Science in Energy Legal Studies degrees were created to provide rigorous, graduate-level education for those who seek to serve in positions of leadership within the energy industry. Whether an individual is in a career in finance, accounting, geology, engineering, land, government relations, communications or any other component of the energy industry, these degrees provide an education that will further enhance an energy professional’s future success.

Both programs are taught in cohorts that follow the sequence of courses, and they both begin together in a cohort taking an Overview of the Energy Industry taught by our Dean and a second course in the legal and ethical environment of the energy industry before they divide into their specific tracks.

Energy Legal Studies Energy professionals understand the collaborative nature of success in the industry amongst all the disciplines and how each discipline regularly encounters the legal environment of accounting, acquisitions & divestitures, surface and sub-surface property rights, regulatory compliance, infrastructure, and much more. Energy Legal Studies focuses on the legal principles that underlie the entire life-cycle and scope of any element one may follow through the industry and all that it touches along the way: contract law, property law, environmental law, administrative/regulatory law, corporate entity, and oil and gas law. Along with acquiring this significant, substantive knowledge, the Energy Legal Studies track enhances students’ abilities to write, speak, and think critically, and to engage in successful negotiations in their careers in energy.

Energy Management concentrates on the core business elements of the energy industry. Energy professionals seeking to advance their careers within a company or those seeking to start their own private venture often find their previous education did not provide them with the necessary knowledge of management, accounting, finance, economics, communications, and operations. The Energy Management track provides a challenging, energy-centered curriculum within these functional concepts, with an emphasis on energy, and the opportunity to collaboratively utilize them in the capstone experience.
