The Department of Nuclear Engineering provides three advanced degree options: the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Master of Engineering (MEng), and a combined Public Policy (MPP)/Nuclear Engineering (MS) program. Nuclear Engineering explores the scientific principles of nuclear reactions and their practical applications in technological advancements. Professionals in this field create systems addressing critical challenges like medical therapies, fusion energy systems, and nuclear waste management solutions.
This specialization emphasizes understanding material deterioration in nuclear settings, whether in fission reactors, fusion devices, or particle accelerators. The curriculum covers nuclear-grade structural materials, their production methods, implementation strategies, and performance degradation, incorporating cutting-edge manufacturing approaches.
