Retour en début de pageStudy objectives

The objective of the Complementary Master’s course in Nuclear Engineering is to enable students to acquire the high level skills needed to design and run electro-nuclear power stations, taking into account the legal prescriptions and regulations relating to the safety of these plants. In a wider perspective, to enable students to acquire a university-level specialisation in nuclear science and technology which is recognised at the European level

 


Retour en début de pageGeneral presentation of the programme

This program comprises a core curricululum of 56 credits and 4 complementary credits to be chosen from the advanced seminars, the organisation of which varies from year to year in function of the high level scientific skills present at the Research Centre in Mol. By way of example, the following seminars were organised in recent years:

 

- Advanced seminar on accelerators and time of flight experiments
- Radioisotopes
- Safeguards

- Nuclear energy, future prospects

- Electricity, energy vector of the future

- Recycling of previously radioactive material
- Emergency Planning
- Experience with full scale MCNP modeling of research reactors
- Minimising waste production in a complex nuclear center : from conception to the decommissioning, the SCK.CEN reference case.

 

This program is set out in detail on the website of SCK.CEN à Mol at the address : http://www.sckcen.be/bnen/

The program is organised conjointly by six universities: UCL, ULg, ULB, KULeuven, UGent, VUB.  The courses are given in rooms made available to the universities by the Study Centre for Nuclear Energy at Mol (SCK.CEN). The practical work relies on the substantial infrastructure and laboratories of the Centre. The researchers of the Centre also assist with the practical work.
