Overview






In 2013, "Petrophysics" (published by Petroleum Industry Press) was awarded as a high-quality textbook for higher education in Beijing; In 2020, this course was awarded the first batch of first-class undergraduate courses in China; In 2013 and 2021, "Petrophysics" was selected as one of the top 100 high-quality courses in China University of Petroleum (Beijing) and awarded the gold medal; Xiuyu Wang has taught this course either online or offline nearly ten years, to students from both China and foreign countries, and each class is limited to have less than 30 students in order to get good teaching effect.
