International School in Nuclear Engineering 2007

Doctoral-level Courses in Advanced Nuclear Science

About the school

- Objectives

In the wake of the nuclear renaissance all around the world, the National Institute for Nuclear Science and Technology (INSTN) and the Nuclear Energy Division of CEA are opening a new international school in Nuclear Engineering, aiming at promoting knowledge in the field of reactor physics and engineering at a high education level.


 Program of courses

This first session consists of a series of advanced courses in nuclear engineering (nine modules of one week each) that will be held in Saclay (France) during the summer of 2007 (July and September):

 1. Materials for Reactor Fuels and Structures

 2. Experimental and Computational Data Evaluation and Assimilation

 3. Validation and Qualification of Neutronics for Advanced LWRs and Fast Reactors

 4. LWR Core Physics and Fuel Management

 5. LWR Thermal-Hydraulics and Fuel Modeling

 6. LWR Safety and Risk Assessment: From Gen II to Gen IV

 7. Fast Reactor Thermal-Hydraulics and Fuels

 8. Fast Reactor Safety and Risk Assessment

 9. Fuel Cycle Back-End, Reprocessing and Waste Management

Lecturers are invited from internationally leading universities and research institutes in the nuclear field.


 Participants

These doctoral-level courses address both PhD students and post-docs in nuclear research.

They are also well suited for established engineers wishing to further their knowledge or diversify their skills in advanced nuclear science and engineering.
