The Nuclear Engineering program aims to equip graduates for success across diverse career paths in the field. The curriculum's technical focus centers on nuclear power engineering, involving complex electricity generation systems. Our strong emphasis on this area, coupled with industry demand for such expertise, makes our graduates highly valued. We acknowledge nuclear science, including security and non-proliferation, as a significant growth sector. Regular assessment of undergraduate needs and employer feedback informs ongoing curriculum updates to best serve our stakeholders.
Nuclear Engineering spans multiple disciplines beyond electrical power generation. Professionals may apply their skills in areas like medical treatments, food supply protection, operating nuclear facilities, developing safety regulations, or supporting space exploration missions.
