Nuclear Materials Design Project

Catalog description

NE 416 is the design project course intended for students enrolled in the Nuclear Fuels and Materials Concentration. The students will select a project in this area under the supervision of a faculty member, and will collectively use engineering design principles, data analysis, risk analysis and economic analysis to optimally design an engineering system to required specifications. The students will develop a design plan and a schedule, and will communicate the findings in writing and through oral presentations.
