Mengenai Nuclear Science & Technology School

The Nuclear Science & Technology School provides educational opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students interested in advancing the frontiers of nuclear science and engineering and in developing applications of nuclear technology for the benefit of society and the environment. 

We prepare our students to make contributions to the scientific fundamentals of our field; to the development and engineering of nuclear systems for energy generation, security, health care, and other applications; and to the integration of nuclear systems into society and the natural environment. 

Our Department's field of study is nuclear reactions and radiation, their applications, and their consequences. 

We generate, control, and apply nuclear reactions and radiation for the benefit of society and the environment. 

We contribute to the innovations needed for a major global expansion of nuclear energy and to educating the next generation of leaders of the local, national and global nuclear energy enterprise, while also laying the foundations for new applications of nuclear and radiation science and technology. 

To achieve these goals research at the Department focuses on three strong application areas of great societal importance:

Fission Energy, Fusion Energy, and Nuclear Security. 

In addition, we emphasize three cross-cutting research commons: 

I. Analysis, modeling and simulation of nuclear systems; 

II. Materials in extreme environments; and 

III. Radiation sources, detectors, and measurements. 

While the three main application areas provide a focus for research and drive the Department's specialized educational offerings, especially at the graduate level, the three research commons enable new connections to be made across the Department at the frontiers of nuclear science and engineering.
