The Department of Nuclear Engineering offers the Master of Engineering, Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The department also offers courses and faculty supervision for students pursuing the Doctor of Engineering degree. Admission to nuclear engineering required a bachelor’s degree in engineering, chemistry, mathematics or physics. Some nuclear physics background is highly desirable. Mathematics through differential equations is required.
Degree programs that include a minor field of study are encouraged. This minor field would normally include graduate study in the area of the student’s baccalaureate degree. If the baccalaureate degree is nuclear engineering, the student with the advice of his or her committee will select a suitable minor area of study. The department does not have a foreign language requirement for the Ph.D degree; however, successful completion of a departmental qualifying exam after finishing the master’s degree is required for continuation of studies for the Ph.D.
