MPhil programme in Nuclear Energy

1 month ago


Gloucester, United Kingdom University of Cambridge, Department of Engineering Full time

The MPhil programme in Nuclear Energy, offered by the Department of Engineering in collaboration with the Cambridge Nuclear Energy Centre is a one-year full-time nuclear technology master’s programme for engineers and scientists who wish to make a difference to the problems of climate change and energy security by developing nuclear power generation.

This programme was created in response to the emerging nuclear renaissance in the UK and around the world. In order to realise significant nuclear ambitions, a growing workforce of nuclear-skilled people is required. As well as a thorough education in technical aspects of nuclear, the course includes a grounding in the wider policy environment in which nuclear sits. It is also a highly-flexible course, so that students may tailor the degree to suit their backgrounds, needs and preferences. Some students choose to focus entirely on science and engineering, while others create a syllabus which includes economics, management or finance. This flexibility reflects the wide and varied needs of the nuclear industry.

The course is designed to cater not only to the nuclear and energy industries, but also to career paths such as nuclear proliferation prevention, radiological protection, nuclear governance, nuclear medicine and health physics. While the prime focus of the course is to equip students for roles in industry, there is a path towards research through preparation for a PhD programme.
