The program of study leading to either the doctor of philosophy or the doctor of science degree aims to give a comprehensive knowledge of nuclear science and engineering, to develop competence in advanced engineering research, and to develop a sense of perspective in assessing the role of nuclear science and technology in our society.

This is an exciting time to study nuclear science and engineering: society's interest in, and need for, a clean energy source such as nuclear energy is at a 20-year high. The applications of other nuclear technologies in medicine and industry have focused attention on the value of a strong nuclear science and engineering program. In response to this demand, the department has developed a discipline-focused program of study that prepares students for the many diverse applications of nuclear science and technology. Applied nuclear science is the core discipline, underlying all these applications, that includes low energy nuclear physics, the interaction of ionizing radiation with matter, and plasma science and technology.
