Personalized training courses nuclear reactor technology

 

 

Offer

Course participants update their scientific and technical background related to reactor operating principles, enhance their operation skills and gain overall competences in nuclear safety. They are also informed about the most recent research results on GEN IV lead-cooled technology, fast reactors and Accelerator Driven Systems.

Theoretical classes are complemented with hands-on exercises and technical visits to SCK CEN research reactors BR1, BR2, VENUS-F, graphite pile and the lead- bismuth laboratories.

Target audience

The training courses in nuclear reactor technology are aimed at nuclear scientists and engineers, reactor operators, site managers and anyone who wishes to gain expertise and competences in nuclear reactor technology aspects.
