Semana de Engenharia de Petróleo da UFC – SEPETRO: uma imersão profissional dos futuros engenheiros durante a graduação

Abstract

This article presents results of the initiative entitled Week of Petroleum Engineering - SEPETRO of the Federal University of Ceará, which is in its sixth edition. SEPETRO is one of the projects developed by the Student Chapter of the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) of UFC. The initiative, conceived in the first half of 2013, came about due to the lack of experience that students were feeling - especially those in the initial semesters - in visualizing more concretely the application of engineering and concepts seen in the classroom by professionals. The week offers courses, lectures, workshops and technical visits to fields of engineering that aim to inform about the market perspectives, technological advances, professional opportunities and contribute with the knowledge of the participants in the development in management, programming, economics and market, besides to encourage the development of skills important to their careers in engineering, such as developing softskills, leadership, among others. Its coordination is made up of a professor and students members of the UFC SPE, who prepare, administer and consolidate all the procedures involved in the conception process, from the idealization and fundraising to the planning and execution of the program. schedule. In the last edition, in the second half of 2018, according to a satisfaction survey conducted on the event, the majority of the target audience, with 60% of the assigned scores being 10, felt very satisfied with the event, followed by 40% who felt satisfied with it.
