Postgraduate Diploma - Nuclear Decommissioning and Waste Management
University of Birmingham - Edgbaston
What you will study
The Nuclear Decommissioning and Waste Management Masters programme effectively prepares students for a career in the nuclear industry, supporting them to develop the scientific understanding and practical skills to address the challenges in this area.
In the UK they currently have 17 nuclear sites at various stages of decommissioning, ranging from first generation Magnox reactors, sites at Sellafield, Springfields and Capenhurst, as well as the fast-reactor research facility at Dounreay.
This programme covers a wide range of the skills required to work in the nuclear industry and is co-taught with world-leading academic staff from different Schools within the University. Learning is via lectures and practical sessions, supported by field trips and industry seminars.
Students will study all of the taught modules and in the summer they will work on their own research project chosen from a wide range of topics in the field.
This project may be conducted at the University, but more frequently in recent years, it has been arranged for projects to be undertaken within industry, giving students an opportunity for direct interaction and enhancing their employment prospects.
