2023 Nuclear Engineering Student Delegation

The Nuclear Engineering Student Delegation (NESD) is an opportunity for politically and socially active students interested in the intersection between nuclear technology and policy to solve problems facing the industry. NESD focuses on active legislation pertinent to the nuclear energy field and educate and advocate to our Congressional representatives to make informed decisions that will help the field, varying from workforce education to spent fuel repositories. The meetings throughout the week help us understand the nuances of the bills, politics, and industry needs as well as being able to express our independent opinion and exchange ideas with those we’re meeting with. These exchanges are incredibly helpful both as professional development for us students, as well as to make a positive impact on the nuclear industry at a high level.
