What is Nuclear Engineering?
Energy
Nuclear power provides a safe, reliable, greenhouse gas emission free and extensible energy source today and for generations to come.
Safety and Security
Understanding the impact nuclear technology and materials have on society and environment is a core aspect of nuclear engineering. Quantifying radiation and understanding its implications while handling it in a safe matter is a task all nuclear engineers must consider.
Science and Health
Nuclear science is imperative in numerous other fields of science, like fundamental physics, geochemistry and archaeology. It also works in protecting human health, including cancer-fighting agents and management of pathogens.
