Overview
The faculty train the next generation of nuclear engineers to design, build, run and regulate nuclear power plants in the US and abroad. Students also gain expertise as scientists and engineers who advance the application of radiation in medicine, nuclear security and the dismantling of weapons, the disposal of radioactive wastes and basic research.
While the department focuses new energy on these emerging needs, its commitment to the more traditional areas research pillars — fission systems and radiation transport, plasmas and fusion, materials, and measurements — remains strong.
